Are you like me? Do you have a hard time memorizing recipes? Well this one, my friends, might boost your self esteem in that area. It's called 10-cup cookies for a reason. Why? Because there are 10 ingredients measured at 1 cup. All you need to do is remember what those 10 ingredients are! Okay, so maybe it's easier said than done. 🙂
Whether you can memorize this recipe or not, they are worth making...and eating...and eating...and eating. We love the abundance of various elements within the cookies, giving each bite a bit of a tasty surprise. Raisins, coconut, oatmeal, nuts... the list goes on and on, until you reach 10. 😉 Then again, you can eliminate any of these that you might not fancy, but you'll have to call them 9-cup cookies. Are you willing to do that?
