I baked some Cowboy cookies over the holidays and they were delicious. I found this recipe when I was surfing the web. In reading over the recipe, the cookies sounded so good I had to make some. I was not disappointed. They are chewy cookies with lots of chocolate chips, nuts and coconut. In my book, this recipe is a keeper.
