Momma's Oatmeal Wheat Germ Cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup wheat germ
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups chopped pecans
  • 1 cup flaked coconut
  • 1 cup chopped pitted dates
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to the desired temperature of 325 degrees Fahrenheit or 165 degrees Celsius.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, white granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Utilize an electric mixer to blend these ingredients until they form a smooth consistency.
3
Next, incorporate the eggs one at a time into the mixing bowl, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Then, add the extract of vanilla to the mixture.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, wheat germ, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
5
Merge the dry ingredients with the butter mixture, stirring until a cohesive dough forms.
6
Add the chopped pecans, shredded coconut, and chopped dates to the dough, stirring until these ingredients are evenly distributed.
7
Scoop rounded spoonfuls of the dough onto ungreased cookie sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie for even baking.
8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven until they are lightly browned and the edges are set, taking 8 to 10 minutes.
9
Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheets for 1 to 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to continue cooling completely.
