Ingredients

  • 125 g butter softened
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups plain flour sifted
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup desiccated coconut
  • 200 g milk or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 190 degrees (170 if using fan-forced).
  • Grease and line two baking trays with baking paper.
  • Beat the softened butter, vanilla and brown sugar in a bowl until pale and creamy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
  • Gently stir through the chocolate, coconut, baking powder and sifted plain flour.
  • Roll the mixture into tablespoon-sized balls.
  • Place cookie dough balls onto the trays - leaving a gap between each cookie (they will spread during cooking).
  • Flatten slightly.
  • Place a couple of extra chocolate chips onto the top of each dough ball (optional... but oh-so-pretty!).
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until just slightly browned.
