You guys know I love just about any version of a chocolate chip cookie. Is it getting old? Do I need to find a new obsession?

I just never get sick or tired or bored of chocolate chip cookies. I just don’t. I hope you don’t either. Because that would make me sad.

These Dishpan Cookies are so so fun. They have some interesting add-ins, like cornflakes, coconut and oats which give them a chewy texture with slightly crispy edges. Sounds good, right?

They seem kind of old-fashioned to me for some reason. Like maybe the Pioneer people gobbled them up in between shucking corn and whittling.

I mean, of course that’s not the truth…because the pioneer people didn’t eat cornflakes. Or sweetened flaked coconut. Or probably even chocolate chips.

But you get what I’m saying, right?

Anywayyyyy.

They are super simple cookies…no chilling the dough or anything crazy like that. Just mix ’em up and bake them and you’re good to go.

Put some chocolate chips on top so they look pretty.

They bake up all crackly on top.

And of course when they’re warm they’re still soft and gooey on the inside…

We loved these cookies so much, and I know they would be SO good with butterscotch chips instead of chocolate. Totally trying that next time.

  1. I have something against corn flakes, but coconut is a favorite in the house, so I substituted Trader Joe’s unsweetened COCONUT CHIPS for the corn flakes. Additionally, using Trader Joe’s unsweetened Flake Coconut instead of shredded sweetened coconut flakes cuts the “too sweet” factor. P.S. I have learned from you, that overbaking is the death of a cookie, so thanks for the concise directions.

  2. Hey, just made a few batches.
    I didnt have any cornflakes, so I had to omit it out. On the whole it was delicious, although a little too sweet for me. id recommend cutting down the sugar a little but that’s just me. I also added about a handful of chopped walnuts. really nice, ctispy thin and chewy. will be making it again!?=????

  3. Thao @ In Good Flavor

    These are my kind of cookies…thin, soft & chewy center, crispy edges. They look delicious!

  4. Can this recipe be doubled and if so are their any special steps I need to do? These look amazing only thing is my daughter doesn’t like coconu. So I was thinking maybe some m&M’s baking bits instead of the coconut. What do u think?
    Thanks,
    Renee
