Introduction
A rich and buttery chocolate dough base plays host to two types of chocolate chips and a handful of shredded coconut for a delicious snacktime treat. I developed this eggless recipe to hold up well in ice cream bases, as the honey will keep the raw dough from turning rock hard in the freezer and the extra coconut extract will allow the flavours to shine through. The baked cookies are chewy for days afterwards too, a pleasant bonus!
