Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ cup butter, softened

  • ½ cup peanut butter

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 cup quick-cooking oats

  • ½ cup shredded coconut

  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line are large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Whisk flour, baking powder, and baking soda together in a bowl.

  3. Beat butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth. Beat eggs, 1 at a time, into butter mixture, beating well after each addition, until smooth and creamy.

  4. Stir oats into butter mixture until incorporated. Stir coconut into butter mixture until incorporated; fold in chocolate chips. Stir butter mixture into flour mixture until dough is smooth.

  5. Roll about 1 tablespoon dough per cookie in your hands and arrange balls on baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Press each ball with a flour-coated fork to flatten dough.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
