Ingredients

4 servings

¾ cup white sugar ½ cup solid coconut oil 1 large egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup all-purpose flour ½ teaspoon baking powder ½ teaspoon salt 1 cup chocolate chips 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes

Luscious Butter Pudding

Instructions

Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a couple of baking sheets with parchment paper or a nonstick mat. In a bowl, cream together the sugar and coconut oil until it’s light and fluffy. Then, add the egg and vanilla, mixing everything well. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and coconut flakes. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto your prepared sheets, making sure to leave about an inch and a half between each one. Pop them in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the edges start to turn golden and the cookies feel set. Let them cool a bit on the sheet before moving to a wire rack.
