How to Make Golden Coconut Drops
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups shredded sweetened coconut, 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon grated orange zest (optional).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
