Ingredients
  

  • 1 ⅛ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup butter softened (1 stick)
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes shredded coconut
  • ¾ cup sliced almonds

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, sugar, and brown sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add Wet Ingredients: Add the vanilla extract and egg to the butter mixture. Mix until well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  • Add Mix-Ins: Gently fold in the chocolate chips, coconut flakes, and sliced almonds with a spatula until evenly distributed.
  • Shape and Bake: Using a 1 ½ tablespoon cookie scoop or rounded spoonfuls, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them a few inches apart. Bake for 9-12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.
  • Cool and Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes

For a richer flavor, substitute semi-sweet chocolate with dark chocolate chips, or omit the almonds for a nut-free version.
