Triple Threat Cookies

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 & 1/2 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 & 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup mini M&Ms
  • fleur de sel (or fine sea salt)

Directions

  1. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Cream the brown sugar and butter together until thoroughly combined and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
  3. Add in the flour, baking powder, and salt, mixing on low just until combined.
  4. Stir in the chocolate chips, coconut, and M&Ms (reserving a few M&Ms to press into the tops of the cookies if desired).
  5. Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to portion the dough onto the prepared sheets. Add a few reserved M&Ms onto the top of each ball of dough. Sprinkle a bit of fleur de sel onto each cookie.
  6. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until done. Remove from the cookie sheets to wire cooling racks to cool.
