As many of you know, I usually come up with a fun recipe to accompany whatever new book I have out. This one for Crispy Gumdrop Cookies is bound to be a hit with your family. And Santa will thank you if you leave out a plate of them for him!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/4 cups flour
2 cups crispy rice cereal
1/2 tsp soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 cup gumdrops, cut up
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
Directions:
Cream butter and sugars; add egg and vanilla and cream until fluffy. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt into creamed mixture. Stir i cereal, coconut and cut up gum drops. Shape into 3/4 inch balls (Mine wind up more about an inch and I prss them down a little so they'll be flat when they come out). Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for 10 minutes at 350 or until lightly browned. Cool slightly, then remove from the sheet. Makes about 5 dozen (unless you make the balls bigger or you eat a bunch of the dough- both of which I do!)
