I've made this recipe from Ladies Home Journal for the past 15 years. My original copy is half burned (a little problem toasting the coconut) so I thought I better get this published. The cookie dough is so delicious; tastes like a candy bar. The toasted coconut takes it to new heights!

Steps:
- Toast coconut in a medium skillet over low heat, until light brown.
- Let cool.
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- In large bowl or mixer, on low speed, mix all ingredients (except chocolate chips) together (with the shortening being soft, it mixes easily and does not have to be creamed first).
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Drop level 1/4 cups dough, about 2-inches apart, on ungreased cookie sheet, pressing dough lightly to form rounds.
- Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden.
- Let cool a couple of minutes. Transfer cookies to cooling rack to finish cooling.
