Coconut Oatmeal White Chocolate Chip Cookies


I've made white chocolate coconut cookies before several times, but never with oatmeal, which seems like kind of a no brainer.  These Coconut White Chocolate Cinnamon Chip Cookies are amazing (and won me a place in the latest family reunion bake-off), and these White Chocolate Coconut Cookies are making me kind of drooly right now.  We're here though, to talk about my latest coconut white chocolate cookie with oatmeal!  These cookies are full of lighter flavors, so the individual flavors really stand out.  The nuttiness from the oatmeal is really nice with little bursts of white chocolate and oatmeal.  

Coconut Oatmeal White Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup quick oatmeal
1/2 cup old fashioned oatmeal
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup white chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.  Beat in the eggs and vanilla until smooth and well blended.  Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, and beat on low until just combined.  Beat in the quick oats, old fashioned oats, and coconut.  Stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Use a cookie scoop (2 tablespoon size) to drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet.  bake the cookies for 11 to 12 minutes, or until light golden brown.  Remove cookies from the oven and let cool on the pan for several minutes.  Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.  Makes about 30 cookies.

Enjoy!  -Cardamommy
