Cornflake cookies

This time Baking Patners group decided to go with the theme cookies. There where three cookies from which we had to bake one or can bake all. All the three cookies were too good, but due to time constraints with a kid and some guests around I opted to go with one. So I selected Cornflake cookies suggested by Priya from a cookbook called "Baking: Commonsense Guide by Murdoch  Books". Thanks for that recipe..The cookies were awesome, crispy outside and soft inside ..Do give it a try..



Softened unsalted butter-125gms/10tbsp
Sugar-3/4 cup/165gms
Eggs-2nos (lightly beaten)
Vanilla extract-1tsp
Black raisins-2tbsp
Dessicated coconut-1+1/2 cups/135grams
Baking soda-1/2tsp
Baking Powder-1/2tsp
All purpose flour-2 cups/250grams
Crushed Cornflakes-2 cups

Method of Preparation:
1. Preheat the oven to 350F, line two baking trays with baking paper.Sieve the flour with baking soda and baking powder.
2. Cream the butter and sugar in a bowl, using electric beaters until they turn light and fluffy.
3. Gradually add the egg, beating thoroughly after each addition then add the vanilla and beat until combined.
4. Now add the raisins,coconut, give a stir. Fold the flour mixture with a metal spoon and stir until the mixture is almost smooth.
5. Put the crushed cornflakes in a shallow dish, then drop tablespoon of this cookie mixture onto the cornflakes and roll into balls.
6. Arrange on the trays, bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until they turn golden.
7. Cool completely and arrange in an air tight box.





Notes:
1. I prepared half the quantity and got around 15 cookies.
2. Used vanilla flavored corn flakes for coating.
3. Reduced coconut little(Used about 1/2 cup) for half the measurement.

    I'm glad that yours were soft on the inside too. I was worried that they weren't supposed to be when some people said they got crunchy cookies as a result.
