Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature if possible
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1.25 cups all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
  • 0.5 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1.5 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • 0.5 cup white chocolate chips optional but tasty
  • 0.25 cup extra shredded coconut for sprinkling on top, optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment and lightly grease.
  • Whisk melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl until smooth and glossy.
  • Add eggs and vanilla. Whisk until fully blended and slightly thick.
  • Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt just until no dry streaks remain. Do not overmix.
  • Fold in shredded coconut and white chocolate chips, if using.
  • Spread batter evenly in the pan. Sprinkle extra coconut on top, if desired.
  • Bake 22–26 minutes, until golden at the edges and a tester has a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool in the pan, then lift out and cut into squares.

Notes

Variation: Add 1/2 cup chopped toasted macadamia nuts or a teaspoon of lime zest for a bright twist. Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days, or freeze up to 2 months.
