Makes: 40 small or 20 large cookies

Ingredients
1/2 cup butter softened
2 eggs
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup desiccated coconut 
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup dark chocolate, chopped/broken into small chips/chunks

Method
Preheat the oven to 180 C.

Whisk the butter, vanilla essence, sugar and eggs until creamy. Stir in the flour, baking powder, desiccated coconut and chocolate. The mixture will form a dough like consistency. Just stir enough to combine all the ingredients. (If not using a processor, knead with your hand, care to not over knead.) 

Place the cookie dough in the refrigerator for 5 minutes.

Roll tablespoons of the dough into balls and place on a cookie sheet lined with butter paper/parchment paper. Flatten the balls slightly and place them at least 1 inch apart giving enough room for the cookies to spread.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool and store in cookie jars or air tight containers.
