"The Perfect Cookie"


I made these yesterday, so I could try them out and they are soooooooo, soooo good. They are chewy and moist and I was very tickled to find this recipe for choco chip cookies.

CHOCOLATE OATMEAL COCONUT COOKIES,
AKA "THE PERFECT COOKIE"

- 2 sticks unsalted butter
- 1 C brown sugar, packed
- 6 T sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 t salt
- 1/2 t baking soda
- 1 C flour
- 2 1/4 C oats
- 1 1/2 C coconut
- 12 oz semi-sweet mini chocolate chips (2 cups)

Preheat oven to 350 F. Beat butter and sugars at high speed until fluffy. Add eggs and beat till blended. Beat in vanilla, baking soda, and salt. Add flour and mix at low speed until blended. Stir in oats, coconut and chocolate.

Arrange 1/4 cup mounds about 3 inches apart on large buttered baking sheets. Pat down to 1/2 inch. Bake in upper oven, rotating occasionally, 15-18 mins. Cool one minute, transfer to cooling rack. For smaller cookies, adjust baking time...but they are great when they're BIG.
Sorry I will add a picture later, it is not working right now.
