Chococonut Chip Cookies

These coconut-chocolate chip cookies are truly scrumptious! I came up with this recipe one day, just trying to find a way to use the bag of coconut flakes sitting in the cupboard. It's a cross between family recipes for cookies and my imagination. I hope you enjoy eating them as much as we did.

• ½ cup light brown sugar

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat first egg into butter mixture. Beat second egg into mixture along with vanilla extract.

Step 3

Combine flour, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl; stir into butter mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips and coconut. Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
