Toasted Coconut Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies
Toasted Coconut Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies are packed with so much yumminess. Golden crisp edges and chewy in the middles. My kind of cookie!
In case you haven’t met me, I am a cookie/cookie dough junkie. The number of cookie recipes I have on my site ought to be a dead give away. I probably make cookies 5 times a week. I just can’t seem to get enough cookies or dough. I know, I have issues. If I had to guess, I’m pretty sure my friends and neighbors love the fact that I have a cookie addiction. There are no complaints there, that’s for sure.
These Toasted Coconut Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies are my latest concoction and I’m pretty much in love with them. I mean how could I not be? They’re loaded with toasted coconut, milk chocolate chips and crunchy toffee bits. What’s not to love?
These cookies are buttery, have crispy edges and the toasted coconut and toffee bits create a chewiness that is so, so good. Oh, and the dough! The dough is so ridiculously delicious! I ate way more than I should have, but I just couldn’t help it. . . really, I couldn’t!
This cookie dough is fairly thick and stiff and doesn’t the cookies tend to stay a little puffier after baking, so if you like a flatter cookie, then just gently press down on the cookie dough balls before putting them in the oven.
Now do yourself a favor and go make these cookies. I promise you will love them!

NOTES: My favorite way to toast coconut is to put it in a large skillet and cook it on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, cook it until it's golden brown (about 4-5 minutes). Another way is to heat the oven to 350°F and spread coconut evenly on a cookie sheet. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes or until light golden brown, stirring occasionally.
