Coconut white chocolate chip cookie… Here we go

Here’s the deal with my cookies… I try and make them so they aren’t crazy sweet these one though are on the sweet side but not too much I found. They have lots of nice texture from the chocolate chips to the toasted coconut on top.

Coconut white chocolate chip cookie

1 ¼ all purpose flour sifted
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup butter room temp (no really room temp don’t mess with that)
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/3 cup coconut
1 cup of white chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside

About 1/2 coconut put it in a small pan and heat for about 5 minutes on low till some of the moisture is extracted and it has a couple of little brown specs amongst the flakes but it not fully toasted or brown set aside and cool.

Sift flour, salt, baking soda together and set aside

Cream with a hand mixer or in a kitchen aid whatever you got works… I’ve done cookies by hand too so no excuses which is why the butter needs to be room temp it helps. So add the sugars brown and white and butter then whip till fluffy.

Scrape down the sides of the bowl

Add egg and vanilla mix till incorporated

On low speed slowly add flour to wet ingredients
Don’t over mix it up

Then with a spoon mix in the none toasted coconut and the white chocolate chips leaving some aside from topping

Shape cookies into balls of your desired liking. I made mine about the size of in between quarter/ silver dollar

Place so that 3 cookies fit in a row with 4 rows

Place fingers over the top and flatten

Press in some of the dried coconut and one white chocolate chip

Place in the oven and cook for about 9-11 minutes till coconut is lightly colored and cookies are brown around the edge


Let cookies cool

And enjoy
