- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1 1/2 sticks (12 tbsp) butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup dark chocolate chunks (can substitute chocolate chips)
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk to combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add egg and vanilla and mix to combine, scraping down bowl if needed. Add dry ingredients and slowly mix until just combined. Slowly mix in chocolate chunks and coconut.
- Scoop dough into roughly 1/4 cup portions, roll into balls, and arrange on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Chill at least 1 hour and up to 3 days.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Space about 5 chilled dough balls out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to allow for spreading. Sprinkle flaky salt on the surface and bake for a total of 20- 22 minutes. After 10 minutes, pull the pan out, lift it about 6-inches off the counter and bang it against the counter a few times to collapse the cookies. Return pan to oven and repeat the banging every 2 minutes. When ready, the cookies will be golden brown and rippled on the edges, but still quite soft in the center.
- Let cool 5 minutes on the sheet pan, then transfer to a cooling rack. Cookies will firm up as they cool.
