I've been making Ranger Cookies lately


I've been making a bunch of Ranger Cookies lately to satisfy my sweet tooth. They are not too sugary and have mostly healthy ingredients.



















RANGER COOKIES

Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup flake-type cereal (like Special K or Total, etc)
1/2 cup flaked coconut
Directions:
1. Cream shortening with sugars. Beat in egg and vanilla.
2. Mix together dry ingredients and stir into wet mix. Place by heaping spoonfuls on an ungreased baking sheet.
3. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 10 minutes. Remove immediately to cool.

Try it. It is almost like Mom used to make.
