Wow! I just made a batch of these cookies and I can't stop eating them! They're wonderful. This recipe, however, makes about 8 dozen average sized cookies, not 4 dozen as it states. I made half the recipe, using 2 cups of chocolate chips, 1 & 1/2 cups of coconut, and no nuts. I ended up with 4 dozen cookies. The baking time and temperature was just right. In any case, thanks so much for the recipe Brenda!

This is a wonderful recipe !! The cookies came out really good, the only change I made, following other users sugestions, is that I added more coconut and it was really good! My husband doesn't like cookies/desserts that much and he has been eating the cookies all day long ! I love this recipe!

These are really nothing special, i would suggest adding vanilla extract and a quarter cup of almonds (ground into a fine powder), put more coconut also, they just taste like cookies otherwise

What a treat! I toasted the almonds and the coconut and used less chocolate chips as suggested by other reviewers. Definitely going to be part of my Christmas cookie gifts. Thank you!!

These were pretty much chocolate chip cookies with a little coconut. Good ones though.

These were so moist and full of flavor. It was a big hit! These cookies don't last. I've made them for my parents and my in laws and they were gone the next day. Great cookie to add for Christmas.

These are terrific cookies. I made them and took them into work and got rave reviews. Even people who aren't cookie fans couldn't get enough of them. I am going shopping today to buy more ingredients so I can make them tonight. I only had about 2 1/2 cups of chocolate chips at home, so that's all I added, and the recipe was perfect. Thanks for sharing a terrific cookie recipe, Brenda!

I got rave reviews when I took these cookies to a party! Instead of using semi-sweet chocolate chips, I used milk chocolate chips. I also made my cookies bigger (about 4 inches wide when done) and baked them for 18 minutes. I will definitely make these again!

These cookies are very good. I took the advise of a previous reviewer and added only 3 cups of chocolate chips. The taste is very close to that of Almond Joy candy bars.

A very tasty cookie. I made a half recipe. I cut the amount of choc chips also, for a half recipe I added 1 cup milk choc and 1 cup semi-sweet. I also added 1/3 cup cocoa to batter due to reviews stating it was almost like a chocolate chip cookie. I flattened the dough balls before baking. I baked for 7 minutes. Some people commented you could not really taste the coconut so I would probably increase that amount next time. Thanks Brenda!

I was expecting something different when I made these. I was expecting somewhat of an Almond Joy taste, but all I got was a really fabulous chocolate chip cookie with a coconut and almond texture. I did give i 4 stars for being one of the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever tasted. Just was expecting something different.

This is a very delicious and unique cookie recipe, I am very happy to have found it, as are all of my cookie taster family and friends! I also only used 3 cups of chocolate chips, found this to be just right. This recipe makes an enormous amount of good sized cookies, be prepared for a lot of dough when making them. My Kitchenaid could barely handle the job-I started teasing my hubby that I was going to have to buy the BIG $500 mixer if he wanted these cookies again...they are pretty good though...so maybe I will get blessed with the mother of all mixers! Sweet fancy Moses! Anyhow, try these cookies, they are excellent! Thanks for sharing such a great recipe.

Excellent cookie recipe Brenda. This will go in the favorites file. I used only 3 cups chocolate chips (mixed milk choc and semi sweet) and they were perfect. Oh yeah, I bought slivered almonds and toasted them. They added a wonderful nutty flavor. Thanks for a great new treat!

A yummy variation of chocolate chip cookies. I went with 3c of chips instead of 5 and my Kitchen-Aid could barely handle the load! Made enough for an army. Ideal for using leftover Christmas baking supplies.

(I am not the greatest cookie maker) These cookies turned out not so good. I'm not sure if maybe i did something wrong, but my cookies tasted like really dry hard oatmeal cookies. They were also very bland. I did not like them and neither did my husband:(

They were really good chocolate chip cookies, but I couldn't taste any almonds or coconut. I even added more almonds and coconut.
