Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- In a large bowl, beat softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Mix in eggs one at a time. Add vanilla extract and coconut extract, then beat until combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir until just combined.
- Fold in rolled oats, shredded coconut, chopped pecans, and white chocolate chips if using.
- Use a cookie scoop or spoon to place dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown while the centers remain soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Serve warm or store for later.
Notes
Sweetened coconut can make the cookies overly sugary. Use unsweetened shredded coconut for balanced flavor.
