Late for #nationalchocolatechipday 🤷🏼♀️ No joke, these are one of the best cookies I've ever had. So happy I found this recipe from @lmadesimple! I wanted to find a recipe that used coconut oil instead of butter. Cookies aren't going to provide health benefits for you, but I find if you give into cravings and bake cookies using real ingredients and from scratch, it's good every once in awhile! So, enjoy 'em, have them in moderation, and try them out ASAP!

In a large mixing bowl combine 1/2 cup melted coconut oil, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tsp vanilla extract. Mix until combined then mix in 1 egg. In a small mixing bowl whisk 1 cup old fashioned oats, 1 cup flour, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1 tsp baking soda. Gradually add dry to wet ingredients. Fold in 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips, 1/4 cup chocolate chunks, and 3/4 cup sweetened coconut flakes. Roll into balls the size of about 1 tablespoon. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place no more than 12 cookies on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake for 10-11 minutes. Cookies should be soft but golden brown on the top. Let cool for 2-3 minutes then transfer on a cooling rack.
