How to Make Toasted Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Toast 1 cup of unsweetened shredded coconut in a medium skillet over low heat, stirring frequently, until light golden brown (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  8. Stir in the cooled toasted coconut and 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  9. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough (about 2 inches apart) onto the prepared baking sheets.
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a couple of minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
