Rosemary Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies

Rosemary Coconut Chocolate Chip cookies

I know you are probably saying “Rosemary Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies, that’s crazy talk”. But trust me these cookies are sooooooo good. I first started making them last summer when I grew my first rosemary bush and I wanted to come up with some interesting uses for it. I happened upon a recipe in one of my cookbooks by Isa Chandra Moskowitz called Isa Does it. Her recipe called for refined coconut oil, which doesn’t have as much coconut flavor than unrefined. I really like a more coconut-y flavor, so I decided to use unrefined coconut oil instead. The refined coconut oil is a bit more firm than the unrefined at room temperature, so I had to make a few other changes to the recipe. After a number of trials I settled on the recipe below. It is super easy to make, and a great way to jazz up the traditional chocolate chip cookie!

It is important that you use fresh rosemary. Rinse the sprigs of rosemary and pat them dry before removing the leaves from the stem. I decided to buy one of these handy-dandy fresh herb strippers that makes getting the rosemary off the stem easy! Measure the loose rosemary using a tablespoon, then finely chopped it before using it in the recipe.

The batter comes together very quickly. I always recommend using a scoop (also called a disher) to portion out the cookie dough so that you get evenly sized cookies. I typically use an Oxo 1.5 tablespoon scoop and overfill it for each cookie.
