Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter (unsalted)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/3 cup flaked coconut

Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine dry ingredients and set aside.

In a stand or hand-held mixer cream together butter and sugars first until smooth, then add the egg and vanilla and beat until light and fluffy. Add dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated and fold in the coconut. Drop dough by teaspoon onto parchment paper. I used the two teaspoon method of dropping the dough onto a cookie sheet but trying to keep them as uniform as I could. Cookies should be about 3 inches apart.

Preheat oven to 350 and bake for 7 - 10 minutes. I have a convection oven so my cookies were done sooner. Look for lightly toasted around edges. Cool on a sheet pan or wire rack.

Personal Notes:
This recipe did not start out as a family recipe, but I added it because it's one of the best cookie recipes out there when it was added to any of my cookie plates, it was always the winner. My mother Sissy (aka Buddy the Elf) loves them.
