Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  2. In a medium pan over medium heat, toast the flaked coconut for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat together butter, brown sugar, vanilla, almond extract, flour, and salt until smooth. Fold in oats and toasted coconut.
  4. Drop tablespoon-sized dough mounds onto the baking sheet, flattening them slightly for even baking.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown.
  6. Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  7. For the drizzle, melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave, stirring until smooth, then drizzle over cooled cookies.
