Notes:

I very rarely make cookies. When the Christmas spirit has me I will make cookies; the rest of the year- not so much.

Then I saw these cookies and I had to have them. I loved the idea behind them. I loved every ingredient. They looked incredible. I made them. They were incredible.

I made a couple changes, mostly to fit our tastes. I used more butterscotch chips because I looove butterscotch chips. I cut back on the coconut because my sister just barely tolerates coconut, and also to balance the sweetness from the extra butterscotch. I used all brown sugar because I like the texture the brown sugar gives cookies (a little extra chew) and also because I like using fewer ingredients when I can.

Ingredients:

¾ cup butter, softened (1 ½ sticks)
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 large egg
2 tsp vanilla
1 ½ cups flour
2 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
4 graham crackers, crushed (makes just less than 1 cup)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips
½ cup sweetened shredded coconut

Beat the butter and brown sugar until fluffy, about 5 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla and beat until well incorporated.
In a second bowl, whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt.
Add the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined.
Fold in the crushed graham crackers, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips and coconut.
Line a large plate with plastic wrap.
Scoop the dough out into approximately 2 tablespoon mounds and lay on the plastic wrap.
I needed two layers of cookie so my plate went plate- plastic wrap- cookies- plastic wrap- cookies- plastic wrap.
The original recipe says to refrigerate at least 2 hours.
I was too excited. I made it maybe an hour.
Bake in a preheated 350° oven for 7-9 minutes, until the edges just barely begin to turn brown.
Just out of the oven they will seem undercooked.
Once they cool off they will be perfect.
