Found this in my Taste of Home magazine. As I love both coconut and chocolate, I thought I'd post it here to save for when I start my holiday baking. The recipe states these are a sweet drop cookie and loaded with coconut and chocolate chips. Their crisp edges and soft centers add up to a perfect treat. Sounds good to me!

This is one of the best cookies I have had in my life! Seriously, it's in my top 3! (The other 2 I already posted.) I got it from my good friend, Kelly. When I asked her for it, thinking it was some "granny's family secret" recipe, she whipped out her TOH cookbook, flipped it open, pointed and laughed. Really?? A cookbook...

Steps:

1. Note: She never puts the almond extract or the almonds in hers, so I've only had them that way, and I can say that they are amazing without! Make them whichever way suits your tastes best. :)
2. Cream butter and sugars together, then beat in the eggs and extract(s). Mix dry ingredients together in a seperate bowl and add gradually to creamed mixture.
