White Chocolate Chip Coconut Cookies

White Chocolate Chip Coconut Cookies combine soft butter and sugars with shredded coconut and white chocolate chips for a chewy, sweet cookie. The balance of coconut’s texture with the creamy white chocolate chunks delivers a subtle tropical sweetness and satisfying bite. Baking until the edges just turn golden keeps the centers tender.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (if using unsalted butter, use 3/4 teaspoon salt)

  • 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, sugar, and brown sugar for at least 4 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
  2. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla.
  3. Stir in flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix just until combined. Stir in white chocolate chips and coconut flakes. 
  4. Drop onto parchment paper lined baking sheets. I suggest using light colored aluminum baking sheets for even baking. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until the edges start to become a light golden color. Don't overbake! Let rest for 5 minutes on baking sheet before removing.
