Instructions

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease the cookie sheets. Sift together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, mace, nutmeg, and cloves; set aside.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in milk and vanilla. Gradually mix in the sifted ingredients until well blended. Using a wooden spoon, fold in the cornflakes, oats, coconut, chocolate chips, and walnuts. Roll dough into walnut-size balls, and place 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets; flatten slightly.
