These mango coconut chocolate chip cookies are ultra-soft and thick. These are a spin-off of the butterscotch chocolate toffee cookies you all went crazy for and similar to one of my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipes and white chocolate raspberry cookies. But these are loaded with dried mango, coconut, white chocolate chips, and dark chocolate chips – giving them a delicious tropical coconut flavor.

The batter for these cookies contains a tiny touch of cornstarch which thickens up the dough leaving it impeccably soft. They remain soft for days!

To amp up the summery vibe the cookies have going, I added in some mango and coconut. The coconut is not enough to overpower the recipe like coconut extract would, but just enough to give a subtle coconut flavor.

And let’s not forget the white and dark chocolate chips which are a must. The creamy chocolate contrast against the chunky dried fruit is so good.

These cookies are so loaded. You will almost question where the actual batter is once you get it all mixed up. But trust me, it’s there and it’s ALL GOOD.

These cookies will be done in 10 to 12 minutes, maybe even 9 depending on your oven. Watch them closely and remove them once the edges appear set. The centers will look slightly undone, but they will firm up as they cool.

Why This Recipe Works

The dough is formulated to not need chilling! This will save you time since you can just mix and bake. No waiting!
The mango, coconut, white chocolate, and dark chocolate work so well together!
Cornstarch makes the cookies feel extra soft while still being chewy in the middle and crisp on the edges. It’s a wonderful texture combo.

Sugar: A mix of light brown sugar for flavor and softness, and granulated sugar.
Egg: One large egg plus one egg yolk, at room temperature.
Vanilla Extract: I use my homemade vanilla extract recipe, but you can use pure extract.
All-purpose flour: You can use gluten-free baking flour if you’d like.
Baking soda: For leavening.
Cornstarch: Keeps the dough so soft.
Salt: Just a touch.
Dried mango: You can find this in the nuts or bulk section of your grocery store.
Sweetened shredded coconut: I like sweetened in this recipe. You can use unsweetened too if you’d prefer.
Chocolate chips: I love the combination of white and dark chocolate chips called for in this recipe.
