Oatmeal Coconut Chewies

Yield: 24 Cookies

Prep Time: 15

Cook Time: 10

Total Time: 25

Ingredients

1 cup (212 g) granulated sugar
1 cup (212 g) brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup (227 g) salted butter, softened to cool room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 ½ cups (355 g) flour
1 cup (85 g) shredded sweetened coconut
1 cup (100 g) quick oats

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl cream together the sugar, eggs, butter and vanilla until light and fluffy.
Add the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto a greased or lined (silpat or parchment) baking sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 9-11 minutes, until the cookies are set but not overly browned (bake a few minutes longer for a crispier version).

Notes

Flour: a couple of the times I’ve made these, I have substituted white wheat flour for the all-purpose and they turned out delicious!
