Toasted Coconut Chocolate Chunk Cookies

"A great recipe that I found in my Cooking Light magazine. These cookies are very yummy. I was thinking about adding some chopped pecans next time. You know, to give them more fiber and make them more healthy! Yea, right! LOL! Actually they're not to bad. Everything in moderation. Enjoy!"

  1. These are so delicious it is a little hard to believe the recipe came from Cooking Light. I will use this recipe again and again. Thanks for sharing.
     
  2. I was just going to post this and here it is! A GREAT cookie! In Cooking Light, the article states that coconut and chocolate both have what can be considered "good" saturated fat so moderate consumption of these is healthier than once thought! Wooo-hoooo! Ya gotta like that! Thanks for posting.
