Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (170g) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup (60g) chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup (50g) sweetened shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. Make the Cookie Dough:
    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and creamy, about 2 minutes.
    • Add the egg and vanilla extract, beating until well combined.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
  3. Add the Mix-Ins:
    • Fold in the chocolate chips, chopped pecans, and shredded coconut until evenly distributed.
  4. Shape the Cookies:
    • Scoop tablespoons of dough (about 1 1/2 tablespoons per cookie) onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake the Cookies:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will still look slightly underbaked but will firm up as they cool.
  6. Cool and Serve:
    • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Notes

  • Toast the pecans and coconut lightly before adding them to the dough for extra flavor.
  • Substitute dark chocolate chips for a richer taste or white chocolate chips for a sweeter option.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon or espresso powder to enhance the chocolate flavor.
