Рецепт Chewy Cherry Cowboy Cookies
Chewy Cherry Cowboy Cookies are bursting with the good stuff...chocolate chips, pecans, coconut, oats, and dried cherries! You and your family will LOVE them!
It's time for the Secret Recipe Club reveal for April and this month I was assigned to the delicious blog A Spoonful of Thyme. I love Kate's philosophy of always being able to find the "thyme" to cook and enjoy family meals! As a mother of three grown children, eating a meal around the family table was always a priority for me as my kids were growing up. And to this day, I still make a priority in my family, even though most nights these days, it's just me and my husband.
A Spoonful of Thyme is full of so many recipes that really appealed to me! I had a very difficult time narrowing my choice for today's reveal down to one recipe. I have Orzo Chicken Salad and White Pizzas with Arugula bookmarked for the future and am looking forward to trying them. However, for today's reveal, I made Kate's recipe for Cowboy Cookies.
When the boys come home from college for breaks, I like to have fresh baked cookies on hand for them. It just so happened, both boys were going to be home for awhile last week and these cookies were just begging to be made!
We loved them! They are so full of so many yummy things! I did change the recipe just a tad by adding dried cherries to the batter and using a mix of milk and semi-sweet chips in place of the semi-sweet chocolate chunks in the original recipe.
This recipe made enough cookies for the boys to snack on when they were home and to take back to school with them in a little care package from home. Give them a try! If you are a chocolate chip cookie lover, you will love this chewy, yummy version!
And don't forget to check out all the great recipes being made for April's reveal in the linky below!
