2

1
cup butter or margarine, softened
1
teaspoon vanilla
2
eggs
2

2
cups old-fashioned or quick-cooking oats
1
teaspoon baking powder
1
teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2
cups Wheaties® cereal
1
cup salted peanuts
  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, mix brown sugar, butter, vanilla and eggs with spoon. Stir in flour, oats, baking powder and baking soda. Stir in cereal and peanuts.
  • 2 Shape dough by rounded teaspoonfuls into balls. On ungreased cookie sheets, place balls about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with greased bottom of glass dipped in sugar.
  • 3 Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.

Expert Tips

If you bake cookies often, having several cookie sheets is convenient. As one sheet of cookies is baking, you can get another one ready to go. Let the cookie sheets cool a few minutes between bakings, or the cookie dough will start to spread before it’s placed in the oven.

Each cookie offers 1/2 serving of whole grain.

This is the third week in a row that I'm trying a new ranger cookie recipe and this is the winner!! I used rice krispie cereal in place of the wheat flakes, white flour for whole wheat, light brown sugar (because I ran out of dark brown) and walnuts for peanuts (again because I didn't have any!) I'm glad to hear they pack and travel over seas well - thanks for sharing that perkup808! I am going to make them for a fourth week and send to my brother who is serving in Afganistan (after I restock my kitchen!!)

I am going to make these later today. I can't wait to try them. I wanted to reply to Diannajim's comment also. I served in Iraq and my mama H always sent me cookies she would put them in a food saver bag and they turned out great. They were so good I barely got to eat any cause everyone always raided my package before I did. So please remember to send alot because everyone will want some.

These are the best cookies ever. No fuss to make. I took some to work two days in a row. On the third day everybody was asking me, "where are the cookies". They are hearty and if you are running late for lunch, have one of these and it will hold your hunger awhile. My mother doesn't eat sweets of any kind and she asked me for the recipe. I'm going to find out how to pack and mail them so I can send some to my friends son who is in Iraq for the third time. Try them, you won't be sorry.
