Description
Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies are chewy and soft with shredded coconut and dark chocolate chips. These cookies freeze well, put the baked and cooled cookies in an airtight jar and place in the freezer. This way you can have a sweet treat anytime you want by popping them in the microwave for about a minute. These cookies keep their shape during the baking process and come out as nice domes. If you like the flatter cookies, you can also press them before baking with a water glass. Flat cookies will be a little more chewy and not quite soft.
Here’s the recipe for Yumilicious & Delightful Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies;
Directions:
- Preheat the oven at 190 C.
- Place a rack in the middle of the oven.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat together sugar and butter on medium speed until well combined. (30-60 sec)
- In a mixing bowl, combine together flour, salt and baking powder.
- Add eggs and vanilla in the sugar mixture and beat at medium speed until no clumps remain. (20-30 sec)
- Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed just until almost all of the flour has been incorporated. (20-40 sec)
- Add the shredded coconut and chocolate chips and beat on low speed until evenly incorporated.
- If your dough feels very soft or warm at this point, chill the dough for 30-40 minutes before scooping or baking. This will help the cookies keep their domed shape better.
- Use a large cookie scoop (about 4 tbsp) to scoop the dough out onto the baking sheet.
- Space the cookies about 1 & ½ inches apart. (leave as is for domed cookies or flatten slightly with the bottom of a water glass for flat cookies.)
- Bake the cookies (1 sheet at a time) for about 15 minutes.
- Rotate the cookie sheet halfway through cooking so the cookies bake evenly.
- While the first batch bakes, scoop the cookies for the next batch.
- The cookies are done when the bottoms are golden brown and the tops feel dry.
- The cookies will be soft when first out of the oven, but will firm up as they cool.
- Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Then transfer on a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
