Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups sweetened flaked coconut toasted
- 2 1/2 cups UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods)
- 1/2 tsp. sea salt
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 2/3 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF degrees.
- Spread coconut in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
- Bake for 7-8 minutes or until the coconut is lightly browned.
- Allow coconut to cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine butter, sugars, vanilla, eggs, baking soda and salt.
- Mix with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Add the flour, toasted coconut and white chocolate chips.
- Stir with a wooden spoon to combine.
- Cover and refrigerate dough at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF degrees.
- Roll the dough into balls.
- Place the dough balls approximately 2 inches apart onto a greased cookie sheet.
- Bake for about 12-14 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned.
Notes
NOTE: The cookie dough must be chilled for 2 hours before baking. Otherwise, the cookie dough will flatten out too much and the cookies won’t hold their shape while baking.
