Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/3 cups shredded coconut
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Set this aside for later.
- In a larger bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed sugars and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, then fold in the shredded coconut.
- Spoon the cookie dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet, spacing them about 3 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are lightly golden, which should take about 8 to 12 minutes.
- Once baked, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
