A new favorite cookie recipe....sooo good! The basic ingredients are so balanced in flavor and lend themselves well to adjusting add-ins, depending on taste.

I omitted the rice cereal; added 2/3 cup mini chocolate chips; reduced the amount of coconut to 2/3 cup; and added 1 cup chopped pecans. I shaped them with a small scoop and then flattened them slightly. Once baked, they didn't overly flatten out like some all-butter recipes do. They were slightly crisp on the edges and moist and chewy on the inside. Like others suggest, I baked them at 350-degrees.

These were wonderful cookies. I baked at 325 degrees for 15 minutes. I really flattened the buggers since I like small, darker cookies. Hubby is taking these to work and I know I'll get requests for the recipe. YUM!!

Very good cookie, thick and chewy! I scaled down the recipe to make a dozen cookies and added chocolate chunks.

Made today. Excellent cookie. Had no trouble keeping the mixture together. Only thing I did differently was add 2 cups mini chocolate chips.

I don't know what happens to the rice krispies when you bake the cookies...maybe magic. I'm a chocolate chip cookie person, but this might be my favorite cookie, with or without chips. Definitely, 350 degrees, not 375. Thanks, YungB, for the tip.

I used to make these all the time then I lost the recipe anf forgot the name. I made a double batch today, split it in 1/2 and added chocolate chips to the second half. They will be thrown in the freezer to take to the lake at the end of the month. Thanks for a great cookie, I won't lose this recipe now.

I thought this recipe was great! I followed this recipe exactly for half the batch and added chocolate chunks to the other half. The cookie is great as is and super easy. However it also lends itself well to almost anything you want to throw in it such as chocolate, fruit or I think possibly even nuts. This is one of my new favorite cookies.

These are AWESOME! Just like I wanted! Moist, chewy inside, a nice crispy outside, a perfect blend of everything! It made 80 small cookies for me. I think that a nice addition to this recipe would be a teaspoon of lemon zest. I will try it next time I make these, and I WILL definitely be making these again! My search for the perfect ranger cookie is now over!

Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. I baked these at 350 for 12 minutes. Very good and easy. Keeper file

These are very tasty and easy to make. I made them with the kids I babysit and they thought they were great too! We used 1 cup of chocolate chips in place of the coconut and Special K instead of Rice Krispies. Those were the only adjustments we made. We got 51 cookies out of the recipe. Thanks!

Very easy. I made only two changes one by accident and one by need. I used 1 tsp of baking powder and dropped my oven down to 300 for 15 minutes. They were browning to fast on the outside and still raw at 375. After the drop they came out perfect. Thanks for the wonderful cookies!

I have been on a quest to find the best ranger cookie, and while this doesn't quite get there, it is the closest yet. I added some cinnamon and nutmeg for a bit of flavor, along with some choclate chips, but otherwise followed it as written. My major complaint is that the dough does not hold together well at all after the first dozen are formed. I do not like a dough that won't hold together. I had to really work to get these to stay together enough to bake them off, but once I did, they tasted great. I am going to make these again, but tweek them a bit to try to get the dough to hold together better. If I get better results, I'll change my review.

I suggest 1 cup of Crisco instead of 1 cup of butter. Also, I usually get 3 dozen cookies out of this recipe. Be sure not to squish the dough into a ball; you want the balls to almost fall apart prior to baking.

Thanks for the great recipe. It was a bland looking cookie so I added 2 cups of chocolate chips and I think without them they would be an "okay" cookie. I also lowered the temperature of my oven after the first batch by 15 degrese and bake only for 10 minutes. I found the first batch to be dry. By lowering the temp and reducing the baking time they came out chewy and a little crispy.I used heaping tablespoons full of cookie dough before forming the balls on a parchment lined baking sheet and let them cool completely before removing from baking sheet. I stored them in an air tight container and I'm glad I did cause this morning while packing a few for munchkins lunch bag I noticed they did dry out a bit more. I will make them again however I would probably add a bit of liquid to them such as milk. Thanks again.
