Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter room temperature
- ⅔ cup white sugar
- ⅓ cup light brown sugar tightly packed
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 ⅓ cups flour all purpose or gluten free flour
- pinch sea salt optional
- 1 ½ cups coconut flakes
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add room temperature butter, sugar and brown sugar. Beat for 2 to 3 minutes, until completely creamy. Be sure no clumps of butter remain.
- Then, add in egg and vanilla. Stir to combine.
- Next, add in baking soda, flour and sea salt. Stir to combine.
- Fold in coconut flakes.
- Roll dough into 1.5 inch sized balls. Place 3 inches apart on lined pan.
- Bake for 9 to 10 minutes or until edges are just barely set. They may look slightly soft in the middle.
- Remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for 10 minutes before carefully removing.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter. Place butter on kitchen counter 1 hour before baking.
- It should be soft to the touch, but not immediately melt.
- Both regular all purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour work well. Do not use another flour.
- These cookies spread while baking. Space balls of dough at least 3 inches apart.
- Bake until cookies have set edges, but soft centers.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Freeze for 1 month.
