I love this recipe and have adapted it. We use the basic ingredients then add a cup of anything we have on hand, like chocolate chips, raisins and m$m's. It is easy for the younger children to participate in and makes plenty for school parties!! Definitely a keeper!

The bake time really does make a difference with these cookies. The best batch was in for 11 minutes. I thought they might be a little under baked, but after sitting for a few minutes they were quite good. I tossed the first batch that baked for 15 minutes - way too long for these cookies I found. The texture is good and chocolate chips add a nice sweetness that the cookie seems to lack otherwise. Not my favorite, but a decent cookie and a hit with the kids.

I think these are great! I'm making them as I type. The kids are going to love these! I omitted the walnuts and added an extra cup of rice cereal, as we aren't big nut fans. Fabulous recipe! Thanks!

This recipe makes a ton of cookies, so I halved it, but still used the one egg, adding another 1/4 cup of flour. They are a very pretty, humble cookie, not too sweet or rich,with kind of a sandy texture because of the oil/cream of tartar. Couldn't try one myself since I gave up sweets for Lent, but hubby said these were a "mature cookie," amd his staff said they took Rice Krispies to a new level, with the walnuts adding a nice crunch.

I usually am not big on cookies, but these are fantastic. I love the succulent flavor the butter brings and the different textures of the coconut, cereal, oats, and nuts. I make 'monster' size cookies with this recipe for 4 doz total, and after my 3 batch or so have started using double strength vanilla. Great cookies! Thanks for Sharing!

recipe is big & economical but the taste is nothing to write home about (Wanted to add this update. I made 12 doz of these cookies in 2 hours. I wrote the first sentence after the first couple of batches came out of the oven. After a bit I started varying things and by taking out the cookies while they were still quite light in color, they were much tastier. So either my oven runs hot or the recipe has them in for too long BUT if you don't overcook them these ARE a decent cookie and you can make A LOT FAST and PRETTY CHEAP!) Thanks for sharing the recipe!
