The ultimate coconut chocolate chip cookie.
This coconut chocolate chip cookie recipe have become one of my ultimate favorite cookies. These are so good I think I am adding them to the Christmas gift bags this year.
I so so love working with coconut oil……It is the first time I have done so and it will not be the last :-) The coconut flavor its just AMAZING!!
These coconut chocolate chip cookies are really easy to make and very versatile. If you don’t have coconut oil just use olive oil, although the coconut flavor will not be there. You can also add some nuts into the batter and I think using oat meal in place of some of the flour as well as wheat germ or oat bran would also work.
Anyhow, I think this is a super duper cookie recipe winner. I will be making these coconut dark chocolate chip cookies a lot :-)
Enjoy!!

Miryam's original recipe
Yield: 3 dozen cookies
Ingredients:
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs
Pinch salt
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup coconut oil, soften at room temperature
1 cup unrefined sugar, you can do 3/4 cup as well.
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 teaspoon coconut extract or vanilla extract
1 cup dark chocolate chips, most of the times I just use 1/2 cup
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Beat sugar, eggs, coconut extract and oils until creamy, I do this manually with a wire whisk, no fancy equipment needed here....... Add flour, shredded coconut, baking soda and salt and combine.
Stir in chocolate chips. Place teaspoons (I used a small cookie scoop) onto the baking sheets. Flatten cookies slightly with the palm of your hand.
Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until golden brown. Leave on the cookie sheet for 2-4 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
