Coconut, White Chocolate, and Chocolate Chunk Cookies
My dear friend’s stepson graduated from high school last spring. For his present, I gave him a coupon good for a few care packages sent throughout his first year of college. I recently sent him his first care package filled with magazines, snacks, and these cookies. He loves chocolate and coconut, so I combined white chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chunks, and shredded coconut to make these moist and delicious cookies. I have a feeling these will be a big hit with the college guy and his roommate.
