POLYNESIAN
BUTTERSCOTCH COOKIES
(Yield: 3½ dozen)
½ cup butter or margarine, softened
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup sugar
½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup self-rising flour
2 cups butterscotch morsels
½ cup rolled oats
½ cup crushed corn flakes
½ cup flaked coconut
½ cup chopped nuts
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray cookie sheets with
non-stick vegetable spray.
In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, oil, sugars, egg, and vanilla
until creamy. Gradually beat in flour. Stir in butterscotch
morsels, oats, crushed cereal, coconut, and nuts. Drop by rounded
tablespoonfuls, 2-inches apart, onto prepared baking sheets.

are still slightly soft. Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to a wire
rack and cool completely.
