Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:
3/4 cup raisin puree (3/4 cup raisins, 2 tsp water)
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 eggs
3 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp baking soda
3 1/2 - 4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
3 cups chocolate chips
1 cup coconut flakes

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2. Mix raisin puree, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to large bowl.
3. Mix baking soda, flour and salt in a smaller bowl, starting with only 3 1/2 cups flour.

5. Add in chocolate chips and coconut flakes.
6. Grease cookie sheet and place spoon fulls of dough on.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly brown on the edges.

AKA - One Handed Cookies since you can literally make them with only ONE hand... My post-op stage isn't keeping me from making more delicious treats for my house mates. Its almost become a weekly thing that I do when I get bored. I'm sure they don't mind...
There will most likely be photos of us enjoying them tomorrow when empanadas go re-loaded.
