Caramel Coconut Girl Scout Cookies: A Homemade Delight

There’s something irresistible about the combination of buttery cookie, chewy caramel, and toasted coconut. Inspired by the beloved Girl Scout “Samoas” cookies, these Caramel Coconut Cookies capture that same magic, but with your own homemade touch. Perfect for holiday gifts, afternoon snacks, or a sweet treat anytime, this recipe will guide you step by step.

Ingredients

For the Cookies:

• 1 cup (225 g) unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup (50 g) packed brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Caramel Coconut Topping:

• 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons (85 g) unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream
• 2 cups (180 g) sweetened shredded coconut, lightly toasted

For the Chocolate Drizzle:

• 1 cup (175 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil (optional, for smoother drizzle)

Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Prepare the Cookie Dough

1. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, combine softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
2. Add Egg and Vanilla: Crack in the egg and add the vanilla extract. Beat again until fully incorporated.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep cookies tender.
4. Chill the Dough: Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This helps prevent spreading during baking.
