Cream coconut oil and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer, add egg and vanilla and blend well.
Add baking mix, chocolate chips and nuts (if adding) and mix thoroughly.
Place tbsp size scoops of dough onto 2 cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 15 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Remove from oven, cool and enjoy. :)
Notes
*It's important to use the baking mix that the recipe calls for to get the best results. Pamela's pancake mix already has salt and leavening agents added, so they aren't needed in the recipe.
