- Heat the oven to 175°C. Spread the coconut on a lined pan and toast for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring once. Cool completely.

- Whisk flour, baking soda and salt. Mix into the butter, then fold in the cooled coconut.
- Chill for 30 minutes. Divide into 18 balls on two lined pans.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the rims are golden and the centres still look soft.
- Cool for 8 minutes on the pans, then transfer to a rack.
Notes
- The recovered Sally source URL is no longer live. The formula was reconstructed from the saved notes and standard drop-cookie ratios.
- Cool the toasted coconut before mixing or it will melt the butter.
- Let baked cookies cool completely before sealing them, or trapped steam will soften the edges.
- Store airtight at cool room temperature for up to 4 days unless the recipe gives a shorter chilled storage time.
- Allergen information depends on the exact chocolate, nut butter and packaged ingredients used. Check every label when cooking for an allergy.
