Method
 

Steps to Prepare Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  2. Toast the flaked unsweetened coconut in a dry pan over medium heat, stirring until golden brown and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine softened unsalted butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, almond extract, all-purpose flour, and salt until smooth.
  4. Gently stir in the rolled oats and toasted coconut until just combined.
  5. Scoop packed dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each scoop; press each scoop slightly.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Check for doneness at about 7 minutes.
  7. Allow cookies to cool on the baking mat for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  8. Optional: Melt chocolate with coconut oil and drizzle over cooled cookies.
