Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients until well combined.
  5. Gently fold in the shredded coconut until thoroughly mixed into the dough.
Baking
  1. Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  2. Bake for around 10-12 minutes or until they start to turn golden brown.
  3. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
