COCONUT OATMEAL SCOTCHIES

Because my kitchen has been out of commission, I’ve been doing a lot of link-ups and random posts but I miss food! I thought it might be fun to have one of my favorite bloggers come share something with you. I emailed Sophie of My Happy Place… to see if she would be interested and within a couple hours, she had whipped up a recipe & a post. How amazing is that?! I am so impressed with her. Her recipes always look delicious, her photography is amazing, she is so sweet & (most impressive to me), she’s only 14! So, check out what she baked up for us.

Hello beautiful people! Well first of all, I’m so glad I can be posting over heyahhh while Melissa is fixing up the house after the fire. How horrible! I’d be going crazy in the head if I couldn’t bake.

I’m a 14 year old, Christian, home schooled aspiring baker and photographer living in Namibia, Africa with my family as missionaries for two years.

Alright now that you know a little bit about me, let’s talk cookies, shall we?

I LOVE oatmeal scotchies. Especially the ones with the crispy edges and the chewy middles. Oh my gosh.

Since butterscotch and coconut go together so well, I decided to throw some coconut into these oatmeal scotchies, and change up just a few other things because I love you. I ALSO love these cookies.

These beauties are perfectly chewy yet soft, with chunks of butterscotch and flecks of coconut in every scrum-diddly-umptious bite.

    I substituted the butterscotch for one cup of walnuts. Mmm these are so good.
