HEALTHY COWGIRL COOKIES



Healthy Cowgirl Cookies image

My favorite cookie is found at our local Flying Star restaurant. It's packed full of dried fruits and runs about $2 per cookie. I thought I'd try my hand at a healthy (and less expensive) version.

COWGIRL COOKIES



Cowgirl Cookies image

These cookies are reminiscent of a white chunk macadamia nut cookie but better. Using slivered almonds instead of macadamia nuts is a more economical alternative. Follow baking directions. The cookies can be a little tricky to get right on the first pan. Unless the oven is preheated, they might not turn out. Note that these cookies don't bake well on airbake pans.

1 ½ cups margarine, softened
¾ cup white sugar
2 ¼ cups packed brown sugar
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
