Cornflake Cookies: Missionary Favorites

Megan has been begging for this recipe so I'm going to post it here for all to enjoy. It's a cookie recipe that a missionary couple would make for our branch Family Home Evenings at the church building. This was definitely a favorite whenever it showed up as the treat.

1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. white sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 egg

1 c. flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 c. coconut
1 c. cornflakes

Cream together butter and sugars. Beat in egg. Combine dry ingredients with mixture. Stire in coconut and cornflakes. Bake @ 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

*Note: I've added white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts before and they were a great addition. Don't be afraid make up your own variations.
