Time 25m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup white sugar
¼ cup light brown sugar
1 egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon coconut extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup chocolate coated coconut and almond candy pieces (such as Hershey®'s Almond Joy® Pieces)
1 cup flaked coconut
¼ cup chocolate coated coconut and almond candy pieces (such as Hershey®'s Almond Joy® Pieces)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy.
  • Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and coconut extract.
  • Combine both amounts of flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl; mix into the butter mixture until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, 1/2 cup almond candy pieces, and flaked coconut until evenly distributed.
  • Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls and place 3 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the edges become golden brown, 9 to 11 minutes.
  • Immediately after removing from the oven, press a few of the remaining 1/4 cup almond candy pieces into each cookie decoratively.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the chocolate chips. The cookies were still delicious.

I made these cookies gluten-free by using gluten-free flour. They turned out just as good as the regular version.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover coconut. I always have some on hand and these cookies are a quick and easy way to use it up.

I've tried many coconut cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are soft and chewy, with just the right amount of coconut flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these cookies are so good that I can't resist them. The chocolate chips help to balance out the coconut flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cookies turned out flat and dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
