ALMOND JOY COOKIES
A friend of mine makesa cookie like this every Christmas and I had to beg for the recipe, she wouldn't share. I decided to give it a go and make my version. These taste just like an Almond Joy candy bar. It's definitely become a favorite. This recipe makes a huge batch of cookies. Depending on the size you make them. You can freeze the dough and have handy when unexpected company or events pop up. This recipe is easy to cut in half. I love the taste of the coconut and have added more to the half batch.

ALMOND JOY COOKIES
I got this recipe a few years back, I don't remember exactly where. (Somewhere on the internet no doubt.) I love this cookie. The recipe makes a lot of them, so sometimes I halve it to make a few dozen less. EDIT: I just made these again and cut down the amount of flour so that the cookie spread out on the pan a bit and wasn't quite so dry. I liked them much better that way so I adjusted the recipe from 4 1/2 cups of flour to 3 cups of flour, leaving all remaining ingredients the same.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 and prepare cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Toast almond and coconut (not together) and chop almonds once cooled. To toast almonds, I bake at 350 for 10 minutes until fragrant. To toast coconut, I use a small skillet on medium heat and shake until coconut is golden brown (removed quickly as unsweetened coconut goes from done to burnt very fast).
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Using stand mixer, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
- Continuing to run mixer on medium, add egg, egg whites and vanilla, one at a time and mix until combined.
- With your mixer turned to low, add dry ingredients until flour is incorporated.
- Stir in mini-chocolate chips, toasted coconut and toasted chopped almonds.
- Drop with a cookie scoop (1.5T) onto cookie sheet.
- Bake 10-12 minutes until golden brown on edges.
- Cool for 1 minute before removing to wire rack to cool completely.
Tips:
- Use quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your cookies will taste. Use real butter, fresh eggs, and high-quality chocolate.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked at a moderate temperature (350 degrees Fahrenheit) for 10-12 minutes, or until they are just set.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: The cookies will continue to set as they cool. Let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container at room temperature.
Conclusion:
These almond joy drop cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you prefer them chewy or crispy, these cookies are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these almond joy drop cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
