  • Scoop your cookie dough out into 1-2 inch balls and place on your baking sheets lined with parchment paper a few inches apart. Top with extra toasted coconut, nuts and white chocolate chips and well as your chopped white chocolate bar.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes until cookies start to get golden. Remove them from the oven and let cool. Top with flaky sea salt if desired.
  • Let cool, serve, share and enjoy!!
