1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the shredded coconut until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are set.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
