COCONUT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES





COCONUT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

This recipe makes a ton of cookies and they can be kept frozen between pieces of parchment paper.  These were enjoyed by my son, Jonathan and his family. Jon said he ate about twenty of them, however, do watch that as they contain coconut, which is high in fiber!

1 tsp baking soda (5 mL)
1/tsp salt (2 mL)
2 eggs
