White Chocolate Almond Coconut Cookies

You'd think that when the weather is hot and you are tired, nap time is in order. But after a long and hot week, I decided to unwind by baking a few batched of cookies. Nestle has an amazing recipe for these Island cookies as they call them. I altered a few things and came up with these yummy beauties! 

White chocolate is my obsession. I am not a huge milk or dark chocolate fan but when it comes to white chocolate, man I could eat buckets of those chips. If white chocolate isn't your thing you can always substitute milk or dark. And if coconut isn't your favorite you can just take it out. I am a sucker for any recipe with white chocolate or coconut, so adding almonds makes these unbelievably delicious!

As I am sure you all know by now, I like to skip steps or take shortcuts when it comes to any recipe. I like to mix the butter and sugars in the beginning instead of using separate bowls and mixing the flour and powders first. I am sure if you ask any professional baker, I am doing it all wrong. But my cookies always turn out delicious and I have less dishes to wash in the end, so I think I am doing just fine.

I know you also are supposed to let the cookies rest but honestly, eating these right out of the oven just can't be beat! Hope you enjoy these as much as I do.

Until Next Time,
