The Cookie Swap Made Me Do It: Breakfast of Champions Cookies
Leanne Clark’s Breakfast of Champions cookie recipe takes it name from the Wheaties used. She says it’s her husband’s favorite cookie from his childhood.
Without chocolate chips, oats or nuts, these cookies are nice and simple, even with the addition of coconut. (We were even able to convince Kristin’s coconut-hating son to try one, and he didn’t notice it.) Once again, I’d probably crush the flakes to even out the texture a little in the final cookie.
To get a feel for the recipes being exchanged in the Statesman’s Virtual Cookie Swap, I’ve started baking recipes that catch my eye. It’s a lot of cookies, but someone’s got to do it. You can leave comments or rate the recipes you try. The deadline to enter to win the title of Austin’s Best Cookie 2009 is Dec. 2. We’ll announce finalists on Dec. 4 and pick a winner at a holiday bash at Stubb’s on Dec. 17. Stay tuned for details.
