To bake a delicious batch of chocolate chip cookies you will need to assemble the following ingredients - all-purpose flour (1-1/4-cup), cocoa powder (1/4-cup), coconut oil (3-tbsp), baking soda (1-tbsp), brown sugar (1/2-cup), baking powder (1-tbsp), granulated sugar (1/2-cup), light brown sugar (1/2-cup), salt (1/3-tbsp), vanilla extract (1-1/2-tbsp), egg (1 whole), shredded coconut (1-cup), butter (6-tbsp), rolled oats (1-cup), and off course the semi-sweet chocolate chips (1-cup).
1) Prior to mixing the ingredients, it often helps if the butter is soft. The easiest way of achieving this to measure out the 6-tbsp approx 1-hour prior to starting and leaving it at room temperature. If this step was missing, and you're in a rush to start on chocolate chip cookie recipe, just measure out the butter and break up with a fork or similar metal utensil for approx 1-minute or so.
2) In a decent sized bowl, mix the baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, salt, and flour together.
3) Whisk the dry ingredients with a standard blender whisk and put to one side for now.
4) Use an electric hand-mixer to combine the coconut oil, butter, and sugars (brown, light, and granulated) into a creamy mixture.
5) Add in the vanilla extract and egg and blend to mix.
6) On a low-speed setting, slowly add in the cocoa and flour mixture (see step 2). Combine until blended. Now pour in the oats and shredded coconut.
7) Add in the cup of sweet chocolate chips, the dough at this point will be extremely thick.
8) Use the finished mixture to create dough balls at a size similar to that of a heaped tablespoon. Place the individual dough balls on a pre-grease baking tray, with a gap of approx. 2-inches between each one. Avoid flattening the dough, as this happens naturally as the cookies are baked.
9) Place the tray in a pre-heated oven. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 12-minutes until the cookies appear golden brown. Avoid opening the open whilst baking or you might end up with completely flat cookies.
10) Remove from the oven. Let the cookies cool for approx 2-minute on the baking tray, then transfer them to a cooling rack.
11) Eat and Enjoy - fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies are best on the day baked, although these cookies can be stored in a air-tight tin for up to 2-days after baking.
