Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans
- 0.75 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
Fold in the shredded coconut, chopped pecans, and chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and roll them into balls. Place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy these rich, chewy Chocolate Coconut and Pecan Cookies!
