Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan.

SO EASY PAN COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 8 X 8 square pan with cooking spray. ( I use a Gladware ovenware pan).
• Thoroughly stir together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, melt butter on high for 1 minute. Add brown sugar and stir well. Stir in the egg and vanilla and beat 15 strokes with a mixing spoon.
• Add flour mixture to sugar mixture and stir just until mixed. Mixture will still be very warm so let it cool for 5 minutes. Stir in chips.
• Sometimes I stir in a teaspoon of cinnamon just for kicks.
• Bake for 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean and bars appear set (edges will be brown).
• Let cool for about 20 minutes. Slice into 16 bars.
• Makes 16.

GRANDMA MABEL'S COCONUT WASHBOARD COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. Mix together well the first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Set aside.
• 2. In a very large bowl: Use an electric mixer on medium high speed to cream together the next 3 ingredients. Add the eggs and mix well.
• 3. Add the vanilla to the coconut milk. Stir in alternating the flour mixture and the coconut milk mixture. Stir in the coconut.
• 4. Make "logs" of dough in desired shape (round or rectangle). Wrap in wax paper and put in refrigerator for 3 hours.
• 5. preheat oven to 375 degrees
• 6. Using a sharp knife, slice the dough logs across to form 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick cookies. Place each cookie on parchment lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Use the tines of a fork that has been dipped in flour to make "lines" in the cookie. When tray is full, bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool completely on wire racks before storing in an airtight container.
• 7. *** Another method of forming the cookies is pinching off about a Tablespoon of dough, form it into a little log, flatten the log with tines of a fork. **** Another method is to not refrigerate the dough, and use a cookie press. The disk has a long slit that is flat on one side and bumpy on the other side of the slit... the bumpy side points up. *********** depending on the coconut milk you use... you may want to use a bit less or add a bit more flour.
