CHEWY COCONUT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
My daughter-in-law, Yara, loved these
cookies. These are large cookies and one is usually enough to satisfy a sweet tooth. When I first started baking many years ago, cookies were not my forte, but today it's so easy with my Gluten-Free bake mix. It takes the guess work out of things when subbing for white flour. I don't bake nearly as much as I used to in the "olden days", but I still enjoy it. I sometimes think I bake less nowadays because the weather is almost always warm. Baking was something I loved to do in the winter in Canada. I tend to focus more on regular meals these days, but I still have a sweet tooth that needs to be satisfied from time to time.
Note: I didn't use xanthan gum or gelatin in these, but you can definitely use 1 tsp gelatin, if desired or use the bake mix that requires xanthan gum. I read somewhere that ground chia seeds could take the place of xanthan gum and gelatin for that matter. Interesting thought, however, I love the gelatin option these days.

1 cup unsweetened, desiccated

(180°C). In large bowl, combine Gluten-Free Bake Mix 2, OR Keto Bake Mix, OR alternative, baking soda
and salt.
In food processor,
process butter. Add egg, liquid
sweetener, erythritol and vanilla extract.
Process until smooth. Add dry
ingredients and process until well combined.
Stir in coconut and chocolate chips.
Using cookie scoop {4
tsp (20 mL)}, place mounds of dough on greased cookie sheets. Leave enough room between cookies as these
cookies will spread. Bake 12 minutes, or
until browned underneath and around the edges.
Allow cookies to cool completely on cookie sheet. Transfer cookies to a plate with a spatula or
leave on cookie sheet and freeze cookies until firm. Keep cookies in airtight container in the
refrigerator or freezer, depending on your preference.

Hints: Right out of the oven, these cookies are
fragile as there is no xanthan gum or gelatin in the recipe. Allow to cool completely on cookie sheets and
follow directions.
