Ah, coconut chewies—soft, sweet, and perfect for a snack! Here’s a simple way to make them:
Coconut Chewies Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
Steps:
- Preheat Oven:
- 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients:
- Cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.
- Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine:
- Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients.
- Fold in shredded coconut until evenly distributed.
- Shape Cookies:
- Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
- Bake:
- 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden.
- Let cool on the baking sheet 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
These are soft, chewy, and full of coconut flavor.
If you want, I can also give a quick no-bake coconut chewy bar version that’s even faster and doesn’t need the oven.
Do you want me to do that?
