Granola Cookies with Chocolate Chips & Coconut

 Granola Cookies with Chocolate Chips & Coconut

This recipe was inspired by Cathy at Wives with Knives.  When I saw granola cookies on her beautiful blog I knew I would be making them soon.  I adapted the recipe to work with what I had on hand and they turned out terrific. I loved the crunch the granola gave to the cookies, the sweetness from the coconut, and the richness of the semi-sweet chocolate.  These granola cookies with chocolate chips & coconut were a huge hit with the kids for their after-school snack and the guys that are here redoing our landscaping loved them too.  I split one with a friend and we both thought they were FANTASTIC.

    1. Amy,

      The granola gives them a nice crunch but they are soft and chewy. I hope this helps.

      Cheers,
      Pam

  1. I have tried oatmeal chocolate chip cookies with the kids but not granola chocolate chip. These looks fun and I love that there is some coconut in there. I will give these a try, as my kids never complain when there is a new sweet in the house.

  2. I managed to resist a batch of brownies I made today and now you’re tempting me with these?!?!? All I want to do is get in the kitchen and bake them!

  3. Hi Pam – I’m happy that your family liked this recipe. It’s one we never get tired of. I love that it is so easy to change it up a bit by adding whatever I have in the cupboard. Thanks so much for the link.
