First of all, I’ve made several of your copycat Crumbl cookies and they have all been awesome. I actually like yours better than Crumbl’s.
This coconut white 🍫 chocolate chip cookie is fantastic. So easy to make. I love the toasted coconut in the cookie and the butter vanilla flavoring is nice. Not too sweet, just right, and the crispy outside and chewy center is perfect. I highly recommend.

Wow, thank you for the kind words! I’m glad you enjoyed the recipe!😊

This recipe is so good!! I didn’t have time to toast the coconut for the actual cookies but they still ended up amazing. I scooped them with a 1 tbsp cookie scooper, baking them around 8 minutes and got about 40 cookies. Took them to school and everybody loved them.

So glad to hear you loved this!

These cookies are so delicious! We were looking for a very coconutty flavor and this one had it! Especially love how the cookies were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Next time we’ll add a little more white chocolate chips though because my husband loves them!
