Coconut Cream Oatmeal Bites Food

COCONUT OATMEAL MINI BITES

Steps:

• 1. While preheating the oven to 350F, lightly grease a couple of mini muffin pans.
• 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
• 3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and the sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Gradually blend the flour mixture into butter mixture. Stir in the coconut, oatmeal and chocolate/butterscotch bits.
• 4. Fill the muffin cups about 3/4 full with dough - just under a 1-inch ball. The dough will spread during baking.
• 5. Bake at 350F for 10-13 minutes, until cookies are just golden brown at the edges. Cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before removing cookie bites and transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. The tops may sink slightly as the cookies cool.

• Place the coconut in a separate bowl or plate and roll each ball in the coconut to completely cover.
