Preheat the oven to 150°

In a large bowl whisk together the butter and the sugar until well combined. Add the egg and mix again.

In a separate bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients: flour, vanilla, salt, baking powder, grated coconut and chocolate chips.

Fold in the dry ingredients to the liquid ones and mix until everything is well combined.

Finally put one tablespoon of cookie dough onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Slightly flatten the dough with your fingers. Be careful to leave enough space between the cookies, as they will spread while baking.

Bake the cookies 15 to 20 minutes.

The cookies will be a bit soft when you take them out of the oven, that's why you should leave them cooling down on the baking tray for several minutes before placing them on a wire rack and leave to cool completely.

Enjoy!!!
