Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 stick of unsalted butter softened
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 1/4 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup toffee bits

Instructions

  • In a bowl, add 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt, 1 teaspoon of baking soda,1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar. Mix well.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the softened 2 1/2 sticks of unsalted butter, 1 cup of packed light brown sugar, and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar until the mixture is well-combined and smooth.
  • Crack an egg into the mixture and add a tablespoon of pure vanilla extract.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and mix on low for several turns in the stand mixer.
  • Fold in the 1 1/4 cups of white chocolate chips, 1 cup of dried cranberries, 1 cup of sweetened shredded coconut, and 1/2 cup of toffee bits. Mix on low until the ingredients are evenly distributed through the cookie dough.
  • Spoon the cookie onto a sheet of plastic and wrap it up. Allow the cookie dough to chill in the fridge for two and a half hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • Using a food scale, weigh cookie dough into three and a half ounces each, and arrange six at a time about two inches apart onto the sheet pan.
  • Place the cookies on the center rack, and bake for 13-16 minutes or until the cookies are golden brown on the top and along the edges.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. This is an optional stop, but if you want to press in a few extra chips or cranberries on top, now is the time to do this. Once cooled for 5 minutes, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to completely cool (about 15 minutes).
  • Serve.
