•

2 cups butter, softened
•

2 cups confectioners' sugar
•

2 teaspoons vanilla extract
•

0.5 teaspoon coconut extract
•

4 cups all-purpose flour

0.5 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 2 cups confectioners' sugar. Beat in the vanilla and coconut extracts and salt. Add flour one cup at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in the chocolate chips and pecans. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls and place them 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten with a fork dipped in confectioners' sugar.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until a light golden brown. While cookies are still warm from the oven, dust with the remaining confectioners' sugar.
