Servings 24 cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 2 sticks butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup coconut flakes
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 2 oz chopped dark chocolate
  • flaky sea salt, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
  • In a bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar, and regular sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Whip in the eggs, one at a time, then the vanilla. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Fold in the coconut and the chocolate chips. Do not overmix.
  • Scoop rounded two tablespoon-sized mounds of dough and roll into a ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about two inches of space between each. Press a couple chocolate chunks atop each ball. Bake 10-12 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through baking time. Remove from the oven and cool on the baking sheet.
  • Enjoy a few warm (ooooh yeahhh) with a sprinkle of flaky salt, or cool completely, cover in a tupperware or ziptop bag, and store for later.
