Chewy Coconut Cookies
To make these, you'll need:
*1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
*1/2 teaspoon baking soda
*1/4 teaspoon salt
*1/2 cup butter
*1/2 cup packed brown sugar
*1/2 cup white sugar
*1 egg
*1 teaspoon vanilla extract
*1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
*Chocolate chips, semisweet chocolate squares or almond bark
{I also added 1 tsp of cinnamon}
Preheat the oven to 350*
Combine the flour, soda, salt {& cinnamon} in a bowl.
In another bowl, cream the butter & sugars. Beat in the egg & vanilla. Once that is combined, gradually beat in the flour mixture. Fold in the coconut.
You can drop these by rounded teaspoons and bake for 9-11 minutes.
OR, you can do like I did and chill the dough, then roll them into balls and slightly flatten with a sugared glass (like you would with sugar cookies) and bake for 9-11 minutes.
Allow cookies to cool then either dip in melted chocolate or drizzle chocolate across the cookie (drizzling is very easy & fast using a fork). You can also leave the chocolate off-- they taste good plain too.
