Servings: 36
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/4 cup buttermilk or water
- 1 large egg
- 1-3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans would be good)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, beat the brown sugar, butter, buttermilk and egg until creamy and well blended. (The mixture may look curdled which is fine.)
- Stir in the flour, baking soda and salt just until blended.
- Stir in the chopped coconut and nuts.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- When you are ready to bake the cookies, position an oven rack in the center of your oven. Preheat oven to 400F degrees.
- Drop cookie dough by rounded teaspoonfuls, about 2 inches apart, onto ungreased cookie sheet. (I like to line mine with parchment paper.)
- Bake in the center of the oven until almost no indentation remains when touched, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool.
- Repeat with the remaining cookie dough, being sure that the cookie sheets are cool before placing dough on them.
