Sugars, wheat germ, oats, raisins and coconut layered in a quart jar. Add butter, an egg and vanilla for chewy trail mix cookies.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup wheat germ
  • 1/3 cup quick cooking oats
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 1/3 cup packed flaked coconut
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking powder

Directions

  • Stir the flour and baking powder together, then add everything to a quart jar in layers.

Notes

Blend the mix with 1/2 cup butter, softened (not margarine), 1 egg slightly beaten and 1 tsp. vanilla. Shape walnut-sized balls and bake on a sprayed sheet at 350 F for 12 to 14 minutes. Wheat germ can go rancid; use within a few months or refrigerate.
