I was making some Ranger Cookies for my family and wanted to make myself some gluten-free ones too. By the time I started the gluten-free cookies, I realized I was out of nuts…darn!
No time to go to the store!
I decided to leave out the crispy rice cereal along with the nuts and add some mini chocolate chips in with the coconut and oats. I love the results and renamed them coconut-oat & mini chip cookies.
This recipe is definitely worth sharing.
