1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup butter
½ cup packed brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
1 egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ⅓ cups flaked coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.) Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla until light and fluffy. Gradually blend in the flour mixture, then mix in the coconut. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Cookies should be about 3 inches apart.

Tips:

  • For a chewier cookie, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • If you don't have coconut extract, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon of rum extract.
  • To make the cookies even more coconutty, toast the coconut flakes in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring constantly, before adding them to the dough.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the coconut flakes in a blender or by hand with a knife.
  • Be sure to measure the flour correctly. Too much flour can make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • If you don't have quick-cooking oats, you can use rolled oats and pulse them in a food processor or blender until they are finely ground.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
  • Line the baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges and just set in the center. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These coconut cereal cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy with a slightly crispy exterior and a sweet and coconutty flavor. The addition of cereal flakes adds a bit of texture and crunch. Whether you enjoy them warm from the oven or store them for later, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
