Ranger Cookies

So I made these about a week before we moved. Now we have moved and things are chaos and I wish I had these cookies... I had all these blog posts planned for moving week but alas I never got them written.

1/2 cup butter, softened                    
1/2 cup granulated sugar                    
1/2 cup packed brown sugar                
1/2 teaspoon baking powder                    

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla                    

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour                    

1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats

1 cup flaked coconut

1 cup raisins, dried cherries, dried cranberries, and/or mixed dried fruit bits

 

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Beat until combined, scraping side of bowl occasionally. Beat in egg and vanilla until combined. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Using a wooden spoon, stir in any remaining flour, the oats, coconut, and dried fruit.

 

Drop dough by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are golden and centers are set. Let stand for 1 minute on cookie sheet. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; let cool.
