These coconut-chocolate chip cookies are truly scrumptious! I came up with this recipe one day, just trying to find a way to use the bag of coconut flakes sitting in the cupboard. It’s a cross between family recipes for cookies and my imagination. I hope you enjoy eating them as much as we did.

Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup white sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat first egg into butter mixture. Beat second egg into mixture along with vanilla extract.
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl; stir into butter mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips and coconut. Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on the cookie sheets briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
