Chocolate, Coconut, Cookie Recipe
These Double Chocolate Coconut Cookies are so amazing that you will be dreaming about them for days. They are so soft and fudgy with the perfect balance of coconut.
I was inspired to make these cookies when my mom shared some of her Coconut Chocolate Lindor Truffles with me. After just one truffle I was hooked. I couldn’t stop thinking about them. The next day I started baking and the end result was this fabulous recipe.
Another quality of this cookie is that they seem to disappear some how. As soon as I pull a batch out of the oven and turn around for even a split second, when I turn back around, some of my cookies have magically vanished. I guess I can’t blame the cookie thief because these cookies are pretty unforgettable!
When you make these cookies, make sure to keep a very close eye on them. You never know when the cookie thief might strike.
With love from my kitchen to yours,
