Calories 216kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil (Or refined coconut oil)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp coconut extract
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
- 1/2 cup semi sweet or dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a small bowl use a whisk to sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed cream together the oil, granulated sugar and light brown sugar until well incorporated. Beat for around 1-2 minutes.
- To the bowl add the coconut extract, vanilla extract and egg. Mix on a low setting for only 20-30 seconds, or just until combined.
- Lower the speed of the mixer and gradually add the sifted dry ingredients. Beat until the dough is no longer crumbly and the flour is fully incorporated.
- By hand fold in the flaked coconut, milk chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed in the dough.
- Scoop balls of dough onto prepared baking sheet (about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough per cookie) leaving 2 inches between each cookie for spreading.
- Bake for 10-13 minutes or until lightly golden brown on tops and edges of the cookies.
- Cool on the pan for 2 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
