THE BEST COWBOY COOKIES RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 (F). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
• In a large bowl using a whisk, beat together the browned butter and both sugars until well combined, about 2 minutes. Don't worry if they look a little separated here.
• Whisk in the eggs and yolk, beating until well combined. About 45 seconds. Whisk in the vanilla.
• In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, oats, coconut, pecans, and chocolate chips.
• Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
• Scoop 2-inch balls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2-inches between each ball so they have room to spread.
• Bake, one sheet at a time, in preheated oven for 12 minutes, or until cookies are golden and set at the edges and still slightly soft in the center.
• Press extra chocolate chips and pecans on top of cookies when they come out of the oven (optional). Sprinkle with sea salt, if desired.
• Cool cookies on baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
