1/2 cup milk

4-4 ½ cups of add-ins (generally, use 3/4 - 1 cup of each for a total of 5 choices):

1.Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2.Stir dry ingredients in a large bowl. Next, add wet ingredients and mix until everything is well combined. You may need to add more flour; the batter should be very stiff. Stir in your choice of add-ins.

I like this! It has much less fat than the King Arthur Flour Breakfast cookies. I'll have to try this when I have time. Thanks for sharing.
