Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup 105 g butter softened regular or dairy-free
  • ½ cup 100 g white sugar
  • ½ cup 100 g light brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • ¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups 185 g all-purpose flour measured correctly
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups 135 g unsweetened medium shredded coconut do not use large flakes

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, white sugar, and light brown sugar using a handheld or standing mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 1-2 minutes). Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.
  3. Gradually add the flour, baking soda, and salt, mixing until just combined. Stir in the shredded coconut until evenly incorporated.
  4. Use a medium cookie scoop or your hands to shape the dough into 1½ tablespoon-sized balls. Place them on the baking sheets about 3 inches apart.
  5. Bake one tray at a time for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly undercooked (they should not be golden brown).
  6. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
