Tips:

  • Oats: Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture. Quick oats will work in a pinch, but they will make the cookies softer.
  • Shredded Coconut: Use unsweetened shredded coconut for a naturally sweet flavor. If you only have sweetened coconut, reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe by 1/4 cup.
  • Butter: Use unsalted butter and let it come to room temperature before baking. This will help the cookies spread and give them a chewy texture.
  • Eggs: Use large eggs at room temperature. This will help the cookies bind together and rise properly.
  • Sugar: Use granulated sugar for a crisp cookie. If you prefer a softer cookie, use brown sugar.
  • Vanilla Extract: Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavor. Imitation vanilla will work in a pinch, but it will not give the cookies as much flavor.
  • Baking Soda: Baking soda helps the cookies rise and gives them a light and fluffy texture.
  • Salt: Salt helps to balance the sweetness of the cookies and enhances the flavor of the other ingredients.
  • Baking: Bake the cookies at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  • Cooling: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
