The Best chocolate chip cookie with coconut recipe
I’ve been making chocolate chip cookies with coconut for years, and they’re always a hit with my family. The first time I tried this recipe, I was hooked on the combination of the chewy cookie dough and the sweet, nutty flavor of the coconut. It’s a perfect recipe for any occasion, whether it’s a family gathering or just a quick snack.
My kids love helping me in the kitchen, and they’re always excited to get their hands dirty with this recipe. The best part about this recipe is that it’s incredibly easy to make. Simply cream together butter and sugar, then add in eggs and vanilla extract.
Next, stir in flour, baking soda, and salt before adding in chocolate chips and shredded coconut. Finally, scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake until golden brown, then let cool on the counter before serving.
One of my favorite things about this recipe is that it’s incredibly versatile. You can customize it to your liking by adding in different types of nuts or chocolate chips. And because it makes such a large batch of cookies, you can easily store them in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
I’ve also found that this recipe is perfect for meal prep. Simply bake the cookies on the weekend, then store them in an airtight container until you’re ready to serve them during the week. Another benefit of this recipe is that it’s actually pretty healthy compared to other types of cookies.
With the addition of shredded coconut and chocolate chips, you get a boost of fiber and antioxidants from the coconut as well as a dose of calcium from the dairy products used in the recipe.

These chocolate chip coconut cookies are a staple in my kitchen. They store well in a sealed container for up to a week and you can reheat them in the microwave for ten seconds to get that soft center again.
For longer storage freeze the baked cookies or even the dough balls for fresh cookies anytime. I love serving these with a cold glass of milk or packing them in lunchboxes.
They also make a great addition to a dessert tray for family gatherings or potlucks. This recipe is simple, reliable, and always a hit.
I hope you enjoy making them as much as I do.
