Marta's Coconut Krispie Chocolate Chunk Cookies

I found this gem of a recipe over at Marta Writes.  It's bound to become a favorite at your house just like it has here.

Ingredients

• 2 1/4 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 1/8 teaspoons salt
• 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
• 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
• 3/4 cups granulated sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2 1/4 cups rice krispies
• 1 3/4 cups chocolate chips
• 1 1/2 cups coconut flakes

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350.

Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl.  Set aside.  In a separate mixing bowl, beat butter and sugars on medium-high until fluffy.  Next beat eggs in one at a time on low speed.  Add the flour mixture and vanilla, be careful not to over-mix.  Stir in the rice krispies, chocolate chips and coconut flakes until well combined.

Drop spoonfuls of dough onto ungreased cookie sheets.  Bake for about 12 minutes.  Allow cookies to rest a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.  

Makes about 5 dozen.
