Time 1h

Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups sweetened dried shredded coconut
1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together onto a sheet of parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on high speed, beat the butter until fluffy and pale yellow, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the sugar and brown sugar and beat until well combined, about 2 minutes.
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed just until blended.
  • Add the coconut and butterscotch chips, mixing just to incorporate.
  • With dampened hands, shape the dough into 1 inch balls and arrange on the prepared sheets, spacing the balls about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake until the cookies are golden brown around the edges, about 15 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool briefly on the pans on wire racks, then transfer the cookies to the racks to cool completely.
