Buffalo Chip Cookies are kind of like a Kitchen Sink Cookie, because you can throw in anything you have on hand-add any of your favorites mix-ins!

The recipe below is for Buffalo Chip Cookies with Bran Flakes, but you can also make Great Grains Cookies. The cookie in the photo above uses the same recipe, but different cereal (Great Grains Pecan). Irene always assumed that the recipe originated in Texas because All weve got here is alligators and snakes. You can have Buffalo Chip Cookies using 16 ingredients and 5 steps.
