Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/3 cups sweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to break up any lumps. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla. Beat until light and fluffy. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, then stir in the shredded coconut.
- Scoop the dough by heaping teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet, ensuring they are spaced approximately 3 inches apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges turn a light golden color.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 5-10 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack.
