These dear people are soooo dang tasty!! Thanks inspirational (not so good for us) Halloween candy for being the subject in a conversation that sparked the idea for these bad boys!
Makes a dozen cookies
Co-Op
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
1 cup Rolled Oats
1/4 cup Butter, softened
1/4 cup Peanut Butter (I fresh ground it today and it has no added sugars, oils, or salt, compensate your recipe if you use a on that has these added)
1/3 cup + 1 tbs Unrefined Cane Sugar
2tbs Maple Syrup (I have grade A, but either works)
1/2 cup + 1/4 cup dried Shredded Coconut (again, no added sugar, oil, or salt), dry toasted
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Kosher Salt (I just bought the Real Salt brand, pink kosher salt, and I LOVE IT!! Fancy that it tastes great, less actual sodium, and has natural occurring iodine in it too ;)
1 tsp fresh Thai Ginger, grated (powder would work too, start with 1/4tsp and add to your taste preference)
Farmers' Market
1 Egg
Cream together the butters and sugars, then add the egg and ginger. After the egg is mixed in, add in the dry ingredients. In another small bow mix the 1/4 cup of toasted coconut and 1 tbs sugar. Once dough forms, spoon out roughly a golf ball sized amount of dough. Roll it around on your hand until a ball forms then roll it around in the coconut/sugar mixture. Flatten them out a little on the cookie sheet. You can add more topping of coconut and sugar now it you have some left. Bake at 350 degrees for 7 minutes.
A great likeness to one of my favorite candies as a kid, the chick-o-stick!! Mmmm.
Happy Halloween!!
