Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 1 pinch salt
• 6 tablespoons white sugar
• 6 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 large egg, beaten
• cooking spray
• 1 fresh lime
• 2 cups finely shredded coconut, divided, or more to taste
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 cup butter, softened

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly spray 2 cookie sheets.

Step 2

Combine butter, sugars, and egg in a bowl using a wooden spoon, not an electric mixer. Grate lime zest into the mixture. Stir in 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon lime juice.

Step 3

Combine flour, white chocolate chips, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Mix in butter mixture until a stiff dough forms. Fold in 1 cup coconut.

Step 4

Place remaining coconut on a flat dish. Roll dough into ping pong ball-sized balls; roll in coconut. Arrange dough on the prepared cookie sheets; do not press down.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned around the edges, about 10 minutes.
