Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Baking & Desserts
Ingredients: 1 cup unsalted, butter, softened; 2 cups brown sugar (I used 1 cup each light and dark); 2 large eggs; 1 cup unbleached A.P. flour; 2 cups whole wheat flour; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon baking soda; 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt; 3/4 cup medium shred unsweetened coconut; 1 cup chopped, fresh pineapple (about 1/2 a small one)

Servings: persons

1 cup unsalted, butter, softened
2 cups brown sugar (I used 1 cup each light and dark)
2 large eggs
1 cup unbleached A.P. flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup medium shred unsweetened coconut
1 cup chopped, fresh pineapple (about 1/2 a small one)

1
Preheat oven to 350F. Cream butter with sugars until light and fluffy
2
Beat in eggs, one at a time
3
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to butter mixture in about 3 additions.
4
Stir in coconut and pineapple. (I put the cookie dough in the refrigerator overnight at this point or you could portion out into cookies and freeze)
5
Portion out on cookie sheet to whatever size you want. Bake about 10-12 minutes are until golden on edges...I like my cookies still a bit moist in the centre. Enjoy! They are very tasty with ice cream and would probably make great ice cream sandwiches as they are fairly soft.
