Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a larger bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This can be done with an electric mixer or by hand. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Add the corn syrup and egg to the butter mixture. Blend well until fully incorporated. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

Gradually stir in the flour mixture, followed by the coconut and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

06

Step
8 mins

Drop the cookie dough by half-teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading. (Prep time: 8 minutes)

07

Step
10 mins

Bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. (Bake time: 10 minutes)

08

Step
20 mins

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. If the wafers harden too much, return briefly to the oven. (Cool time: 20 minutes)

09

Step
5 mins

While the cookies are cooling, melt the chocolate and remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (or in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between) until smooth. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

10

Step
10 mins

Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cookies. Let the chocolate set before serving. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate instead of semisweet.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their crispness.
Add chopped nuts like almonds or pecans to the batter for extra texture and flavor.
Ensure butter is softened, not melted, to ensure cookies are crispy.

    The hint of vanilla really complements the coconut and chocolate.
