RECIPE: Chocolate Cocunut Cookies!

Well, as promised I was going to be posting some yummy recipes. The other night was pouring with rain! So we decided to have a warm night in and have a bake off! We decided to create some yummy chocolate coconut cookies. We got the recipes right out of our Vintage Cooking Encyclopedia.





Here is what you will need:
  • 2 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cup of shredded Coconut

First, in a large bowl, you cream together the butter and sugar with a hand mixer. Add the eggs and the vanilla to the mixture until combined. In a medium bowl, mix together the cocoa powder, baking soda, salt and flour. Slowly add the try ingredients until mixed thoroughly. Finally add the coconut shreds to the final mixture.

Preheat the oven to 350 degress.

Grab about 2 inch thick balls of dough, roll in your palm and place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. (I didn't so this part as you can see below, hehe)
Bake for 10 minutes and Enjoy!
