Ingredients
Dry ingredients:1 c all-purpose GF flour (I use Bob's Red Mill)1/4 c almond meal1/2 t baking soda1/2 t salt1/4 t xanthan gumWet ingredients:1/2 c butter (1 stick), room temperature or softened1/2 c *unpacked* brown sugar1/4 c white sugar1/2 t vanilla extract1 XL eggAdd-ins:1/2 c dried (unsweetened) coconut1 c chocolate chips
Directions
Heat oven to 375.

In a small bowl, combine dry ingredients with a fork. Set aside.

In a large bowl, use a mixer on a low setting (or a spoon) to cream butter, sugars, egg, and vanilla.

Once wet ingredients are creamed together, continue beating with the mixer (or spoon) while slowly adding mixture of dry ingredients. The dough will be stiff. Do not overmix - stop as soon as there are no more pockets of flour.

With a spoon/spatula, fold in coconut and chocolate chips.

Drop by heaping teaspoon/Tablespoon onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 5.5-7 minutes, checking often after 5 minutes so that they don't burn. Let cool on the pan for 2 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool the rest of the way. Makes 40 cookies.
