Instructions

Toast the chopped pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes until fragrant; set aside to cool.
In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat together softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time along with the vanilla extract; mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add flour along with salt, baking powder, and baking soda; mix until just combined.
Gently fold in oats, corn flakes, toasted pecans, and coconut flakes.
Stir in peanut butter chips and semi-sweet chocolate chips without overmixing.
Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop out dough using a measuring cup onto prepared sheets, spacing them apart.
Bake for about 12-14 minutes until golden brown around the edges but still shiny in the center.
Let cool on baking sheets before transferring to wire racks.
