Divine Coconut-PB-Choc Chip Cookies

[KT22A]

yum! nice to see a PB cookie recipe that doesn't call for margarine. these stay extremely soft the next day. I did need about 1/4 cup soymilk to hold the dough together. delicious - 5 stars!

Oh my god, three of my favorite ingredients...I am SO going to have to try these soon! Although I think I will mix the chips in, because I love those abandoned ones at the bottom of the bowl - what better excuse to eat them?

Do I use dried coconut flakes, or real coconut meat?

These are the most fabulous cookies! I love pb-coconut combo and just HAD to try these, except I subtracted the chocolate from the mix because I wanted to experience the whole pb-coconut fantasticness! I used spelt/brown rice flour combo and added 1 tsp oil to be saf - verrrrrrrryyyy good cookie texture!

p.s. Notaveggy_111 - Shredded unsweetened dried coconut works best in this recipe if you ask me!

Oh WOW!  These were YUMMY!  I love the fact that there is no oil or margarine.  They are so moist and absolutely delicious!  Thanks for the great recipe!

I'm baking my first batch now and they seem so decadent.  I wonder how they would be if I omitted the sugar or cut it down somehow?  The peanut butter has sugar and I accidentally bought sweetened coconut.  That's a lot of sugar.  I guess I'll "suffer" through these sweeties before I experiment.

Okay, so I was a little undecided how to rate the recipe, but I decided on 4 stars. They were very good the first day, and one of my guests ate like 10 of them!! But the next day they were just hard and downright not good (and I love desserts of all kinds, so that is saying something). Maybe it is because my boyfriend put them in the fridge, but even after thawing they weren't any better. I might try them again at some point since they have so much potential, so we'll see...

I made these and they are so gooood.
I got my Grandma to eat one, and after, she goes, "You proved to me you can cook, so I will give you 40 Euros." Hahah.

these were quite tasty, but i don't get the separate chocolate chip and coconut steps.  my dough was extremely sticky and was more on my fingers than in a little ball, so i decided to mix the chocolate chips and coconut in with the batter.  it just didn't seem necessary to me to segregate those lovelies and add more work to the agenda.

i subbed spelt flour and thought it tasted good here; i had to add more soymilk plus a tad of oil, too.  dough was way sticky.  but very, very good!

oh, and i had them the next day but didn't encounter any texture changes.  maybe uhblondie's 'fridge experiment changed their longevity.  or maybe i got lucky!

I got asked "No eggs...100% vegan... Really?" So I guess they were pretty good-- soft and fluffy.  Anyway, I used half brown sugar and half regular, I was low on the regular stuff.  I added some almond milk to help bind everything together and threw the chocolate chips in dough.  The dough is pretty divine on it's own.
