Chocolate Coconut Crunch Cookies

Prep Time 29 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Yield: 12 cookies
Chocolate coconut crunch cookies have amazing flavor and texture. Nutty brown butter cookies packed with chocolate chips, toasted coconut, and crisped rice cereal for extra crunch!

Ingredients 

  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bar milk, semisweet or dark chocolate
  • ½ cup shredded sweetened coconut toasted
  • ½ cup crisped rice cereal

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Place butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
  • Once the butter is melted, continue to cook stirring constantly until the butter turns a light golden-brown color. Remove from the heat immediately and pour into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add light brown sugar and granulated sugar to the brown butter. Stir until combined and smooth.
  • Add egg and vanilla extract and mix well until smooth.
  • Add all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until the dry ingredients are well combined and the mixture forms a dough.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, toasted coconut, and crisped rice cereal until well dispersed throughout the cookie dough.
  • Portion the dough into balls using a large cookie scoop (3 tbsp). Place the cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet pan. Allow room for spreading.
  • Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes. The cookies will appear underdone. Remove the pan from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 2 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool to room temperature.

Notes

Chocolate coconut crunch cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days. 
If you would like to make smaller cookies with a medium cookie scoop, reduce the baking time by 1 to 2 minutes.
