COCONUT CHOCOLATE
CHIP COOKIES
It is a keeper chewy cookie recipe. So easy to make and they won't last too long; however one cookie snack here and there makes for a fun day! I love cookies like this. They would also go well on a holiday platter of low-carb cookies.
Coconut is a useful tool on a low-carb diet which often causes constipation. Coconut cookies to the rescue!
I used the flaked unsweetened coconut, but feel free to use shredded coconut instead. I am sure it won't make much difference. Also, if you prefer not to use chocolate chips, you can add another 1/4 cup of flaked coconut.
These are quick and easy to make. They are not big cookies. I only used 1 1/2 teaspoonsful of cookie dough for each cookie. You are welcome to make them bigger - use 1 tbsp cookie dough.
I used baking powder as I am very sensitive to the soapy taste of baking soda.
