Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Sift flour, salt, and baking soda together in a medium bowl and set aside. Using an electric mixer, blend the sugars and butter until creamy and smooth. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, vanilla, and milk together before adding into the sugar mixture. Mix on medium speed until smooth. Slowly add in flour mixture until well combined. On low speed, stir in chocolate chips, coconut, and nuts. For best results, allow dough to chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour.

Using an ice cream scoop, spoon generous mounds of chilled dough onto parchment lined cookie sheets, 6 cookies per sheet. Bake cookies for 12-14 minutes, checking the cookies after 5 minutes and rotating the tray to ensure even browning.

Mini Apple Tarts

Instead of a whole pie, try making bite-size tarts. The diminutive desserts cook quicker and are automatically portion controlled. Plus, they're easier to make for a crowd, and there's no need for a fork and plate.
