September 15th, 2009 - by Stephanie
I will always remember the times when my Mom would have fresh, hot cookies waiting for me when I got home from school. There is nothing like it. So go and bake some cookies for your kids right now!!! They will always remember that. And I love a good chocolate cookie. Dunk it in milk and you’ve got yourself a delicious treat! These cookies are filled with cocoa, semi sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips and sweet coconut. Yummy! Give them a try!
Double Chocolate Chip Coconut Cookies
recipe makes about 4 dozen
2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (good quality is essential!)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1 3/4 cups sweetened flaked coconut
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside. Using a mixer, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla. Mix until well incorporated. Slowly add the flour mixture and mix just until blended. Stir in the coconut, and chocolate chips. Using a 1 1/2 inch ice cream scooper, drop batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350 degrees for about 8-10 minutes or just until set. Do not overbake. Transfer to cooling racks.
Enjoy!
