Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

• 3/4 cup granulated sugar

• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar

• 2 large eggs

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1 cup chocolate chips

• 1 cup sliced or chopped almonds

• 1 cup sweetened or unsweetened flaked coconut

Instructions

1. Preheat and Prep:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line large baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Mix Wet Ingredients:

   • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.

   • Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

3. Combine Dry Ingredients:

   • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

   • Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined.

4. Fold in Mix-ins:

   • Gently fold in the chocolate chips, sliced almonds, and flaked coconut until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

5. Bake:

   • Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between them.

   • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.

6. Cool:

   • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
