These easy coconut chewy cookies are chunky and soft coconut oatmeal cookies made with just 8 ingredients. They’re buttery, soft, and have a rich caramel-like sweetness from brown sugar.
In a medium bowl sift together the flour, salt and baking powder. Set aside.
In a large bowl cream the butter until light and fluffy, slowly add the sugar and beat. Add the egg and beat again until combined.
Stir in the oats and shredded coconut. Add the flour mix and beat until combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
While the dough in chilling, pre-heat the oven to 325℉ (165℃) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Drop the dough on the prepared baking sheet with a spoon or a medium size cookie scoop and flatten the tops with a fork. Bake for approximately 12-15 minutes or until golden. Place the baking sheet on a cooling rack for 10 minutes, then transfer the cookies directly onto the rack to finish cooling down. Serve and Enjoy!
