Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour*
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar

  • 3/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 3/4 cup pecans, chopped
      • *Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.

      1. Heat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
      2. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
      3. In the bowl of stand mixer, beat butter until light and fluffy then gradually add sugar and brown sugar; continue to beat until smooth and creamy.
      4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition and scraping down sides as needed.
      5. Add vanilla.
      6. Reduce mixer to low, slowly add flour mixture mixing until just combined.
      7. Mix in chocolate chips, oats, shredded coconut and chopped pecans.
      8. Using dampened hands scoop 1/4 cup of cookie dough and form dough into balls. Place on parchment line cookie sheet, 2 inches apart and flatten slightly with dampened hand.
      9. Bake for 10 minutes, then rotate baking sheet and bake an additional 5 minutes.
      10. Allow to cool on baking sheet then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

      Ingredientes

      • 3 tazas de harina*
      • 1 cucharada de polvo para hornear
      • 1 cucharada bicarbonato de sodio
      • 1 cucharada canela molida
      • 1 cucharadita sal
      • 1 1/2 tazas mantequilla, a temperatura ambiente
      • 1 1/2 cups Dixie Crystals Azúcar Granulada Extra Fina
      • 1 1/2 cups packed Dixie Crystals Azúcar Morena Clara
      • 3 huevos
      • 1 cucharada vainilla
      • 3 tazas chispas de chocolate semi-dulce
      • 3 tazas avena tradicional
      • 2 tazas coco rallado sin endulzar
      • 2 tazas pacanas, picadas
      • *Método de cuchara y barrido: use una cuchara para llenar la taza de medir con harina hasta obtener la cantidad requerida. Si coloca la taza de medir directamente en la bolsa de harina, empacará la harina con firmeza y se necesitará demasiada harina para la receta.

      Direcciones

      1. Calienta el horno a 350 grados y forra una bandeja para hornear con papel pergamino.
      2. Mezcla la harina, el polvo para hornear, el bicarbonato de sodio, la canela molida y la sal en un tazón.
      3. Bata la mantequilla hasta que esté ligera y esponjosa; añada el azúcar y la azúcar morena batiendo hasta que esté suave y cremoso.
      4. Agrega los huevos de uno por uno, mezclando bien después de cada huevo, raspando las orillas del tazón si es necesario.
      5. Añada la vainilla.
      6. Reduzca la batidora a velocidad baja y lentamente agrega la mezcla de harina hasta que se incorpore completamente.
      7. Agrega las chispas de chocolate, la avena, el coco rallado y las pacanas picadas. Utilizando las manos previamente humedecidas forma bolitas de 1/4 taza de la masa de galleta. Coloca las bolas de masa, aplanando ligeramente con la mano humedecida, con 2 pulgadas de distancia en la bandeja para hornear previamente forrada con papel pergamino.
      8. Hornea durante 15 minutos girando la bandeja después de 10 minutos.
      9. Retire del horno. Deje enfriar las galletas en la bandeja para hornear por unos minutos antes de transferirlos a una rejilla para enfriar completamente.
