These are a chocolate chip cookie based on one of my favorite candies - the Mounds bar. Change the dark chocolate chips to milk chocolate and add some chopped toasted almonds and you have an Almond Joy in cookie form.

I would love to try this recipe, but I don't have a mixer. Do you think I could make these cookies by hand?

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I actually really liked these cookies. The chocolate flavor was strong enough to balance out the coconut.

These cookies were absolutely delicious! The texture was perfect - chewy on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside. The chocolate and coconut flavors were well-balanced, and the cookies were not too sweet. I will definitely be making these aga
