Chocolate Coconut Drop Cookies
I started with this Betty Crocker recipe for chocolate drop cookies (I am pretty sure that I used to make these years ago.
one cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/3 cup buttermilk (I made my own using vinegar)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
2 oz unsweetened baking chocolate, melted, cooled
1 3/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
I added a heaping tbsp of Hersheys Cocoa (the old fashioned kind)
and at the end stirred in 1/3 to 1/2 a bag of coconut.
1 Heat oven to 400°F. Grease cookie sheet with shortening or cooking spray.
2 In large bowl, beat granulated sugar, 1/2 cup butter, the buttermilk, vanilla,
egg and 2 ounces melted chocolate with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with
spoon. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt.
3 On cookie sheet, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart.
4 Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until almost no indentation remains when touched in
center. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely,
about 30 minutes.
I frosted with chocolate frosting and put a bit of coconut on top
