- 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- ¼ teaspoon coconut extract
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg room temperature
- 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine 1/2 cup of butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well-mixed. This should take a few minutes.
Add the egg, coconut extract, coconut flakes, and vanilla extract. Mix for 1 minute.
Incorporate the flour, salt, and baking soda into the mixture until it forms cookie dough. Be sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl.
Using a cookie scoop, place the cookie dough onto the baking sheet and bake for 11-12 minutes.
Enjoy warm!
- Make sure the brown sugar is soft; otherwise, it will be difficult to mix in. Ensure that all of your ingredients are fresh for the best cookies!
- Don't overbake the cookies! You'll need to bake them for 11-12 minutes at 350 degrees F.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper so the cookies don't stick.
- If you don't have a cookie scoop, use a tablespoon to scoop the dough onto the baking sheet.
