halved gummy bears, gum drops, or jelly beans (optional)
Directions
Beat coconut oil. Add 1/3 of the flour, sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla. Beat. Then add the rest of the flour and beat.
If using add-ins, stir in 1 cup of optional ingredients, either 1 cup of 1 ingredient, or one cup total of multiple ingredients.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Cook at 375 °F for about 8 minutes. Watch closely to make sure they don't burn.
This makes about 2 dozen without any add-ins, and 3 with.
