COCONUT CHOC CHIP COOKIES RECIPE























This is a recipe I have been making quite a lot lately because not only do I LOVE these cookies but my boyfriend and family are also crazy about them! Surprisingly they aren't too terrible for your health despite being cookies! I have even made a couple of different healthier versions of this but the recipe that TASTES the best is the following:   

Ingredients:
3/4 cup Sugar
1/2 Margarine or Butter
1/4 cup Coconut or Almond Milk
1 tablespoon Vanilla Essence
3/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 1/3 cups Flour
2 1/2 cups Dessicated Coconut
3/4 Chocolate Chips

Method:

Step #1- Preheat oven to 180 degrees (Celsius) and line a tray with baking paper.
Step #2- Cream together sugar, margarine, coconut milk, vanilla, baking soda and salt.
Step #3- Beat in flower until just combined then stir in coconut and chocolate chips.
Step #4- Place heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the lined baking tray and bake for about 10-15 minutes or until cooked through.

Tips:
* I like to take the cookies out of the oven a couple of minutes before I think they are done because I prefer mine to be extra gooey and soft.
* You can add nuts to this recipe as well as or instead of the chocolate chips! Macadamias taste delicious if added to this recipe.
* You can use rolled oats instead of flour for a healthier spin on it.

So that is my Coconut Choc Chip Recipe; I really hope you all love this one as much as I do!
