CRAZY COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
• In the bowl of a mixer, cream the butter together with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until it's nice and combined. Add the eggs, peanut butter and vanilla and beat until smooth, scraping the bowl if necessary to make sure everything is incorporated.
• In a separate bowl, combine the flour, coffee granules, baking soda and salt. Stir together, then add it to the mixer in 3 increments, mixing on low until it's totally incorporated. Scrape the bowl and beat for a few more seconds. Stir in the chocolate candies, rice cereal and pecans (if using) by hand.
• With an ice cream scoop, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate the scooped cookies for 15 minutes, then bake until golden brown, 9 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and repeat with the remaining dough.

BREAKFAST COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter together with the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Add the vanilla and eggs. Next, add the flour, baking soda and salt. Add the oats, coconut, flax seeds and sunflower seeds. Fold in the apricots, cherries, pecans and raisins.
• Drop the batter onto cookie sheets with a cookie scoop or two spoons. Bake for 12 minutes, then cool on a rack.
• Eat and feel guiltless, because there's no chocolate in this cookie!

EASIEST EVER PB COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
• With an electric mixer, beat together the peanut butter, brown sugar and egg until well combined. Stir in the chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
• Lightly wet your hands and form the mixture into 12 balls. Place the balls about 1 inch apart on the baking sheet. Lightly wet the tines of a fork and press a criss-cross pattern into the top of each cookie. Lightly sprinkle them with flaky sea salt.
• Bake until just starting to brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then remove to a rack to cool completely before eating.
