Ingredients

• 1 cup Butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 2 Eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 cups Orange slice candies, chopped
• 1 cup Sweetened shredded coconut

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.

Step 3

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until fully combined.

Step 6

Using a spatula, fold in the chopped orange slice candies and shredded coconut, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the dough.

Step 7

Scoop the dough with a tablespoon or cookie scoop and drop onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may appear slightly undercooked, but they will set as they cool.

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
