Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chocolate Chip Coconut Cookies.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). While the oven warms up, grab a large baking sheet and give it a light greasing to prevent sticking. This will ensure your cookies come off easily once baked!
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda. This step is crucial as it helps to evenly distribute the leavening agents throughout the flour, ensuring your cookies rise perfectly.
Step 3
In another bowl, combine the sweetened flaked coconut, chocolate chips, quick-cooking oats, and roasted sunflower seeds. This delightful mix will add texture and flavor to your cookies, making each bite a treat!
Step 4
Now, in a separate bowl, cream together the white sugar and softened butter. Use a spoon to break up the butter and create a smooth paste with the sugar. This process is key to achieving that light and fluffy cookie texture we all love!
Step 5
Once your butter and sugar are well combined, beat in the eggs one at a time using an electric mixer on medium speed. Keep mixing until the mixture is light and creamy, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Next, gently fold the coconut mixture into the creamed butter mixture. Stir until everything is evenly combined, and then gradually mix in the flour mixture. Be careful not to overmix; just combine until you see no dry flour left. This will keep your cookies tender!
Step 7
Using a spoon, drop small spoonfuls of dough onto your prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.
Step 8
Pop the baking sheet into your preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned. Keep an eye on them, as oven times can vary!
Step 9
Once baked, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. This step is essential to let them set and develop their full flavor. Enjoy your delicious cookies with a glass of milk or pack them in lunchboxes for a sweet surprise!
