Country Style chocolate Chip Cookies

I found a binder recently that happened to have some very yummy recipes I had saved. This recipe was actually handwritten on an entire piece of computer paper in pencil by me! I bet I was like 10 years old or something when I wrote it down.I have no idea where i even got the recipe from. I am not sure I ever made them, but they sound really good, so you better believe I will be making these the next chance I get!

Country Style Chocolate Chip Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cream together until smooth:

1 cup softened butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups white sugar

Add:

1 Tbls. milk
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Beat and add:

2 eggs

Stir in:

1 cup fresh corn flakes, crumbled
3 cups oatmeal

Sift together:
* or to taste

1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. mace*
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon*
1/4 tsp. nutmeg*
1/8 tsp. powdered cloves*

Stir in:

4 oz. coconut
1 pkg. chocolate chips
1 cup walnuts

Drop batter by well rounded teaspoon onto greased cookie sheets. Bake 10 minutes at 350 degrees. makes about 8 dozen.

Again, this sounds like a very loaded, very yummy cookie. I look forward to trying it! I am sure you could substitute many of the ingredients as well, like pecans instead of walnuts, raisins instead of chocolate chips, or different flavor chips or baking pieces, no coconut, and maybe even a different type of flake cereal? The possibilities are endless.
