Almond Joy Cookies

This is Dexter's Mom's recipe. I love them, but I also love coconut!

1 cup butter
1/2 C white sugar
1 1/2 C brown sugar
4 eggs
3 teaspoons vanilla
4 1/2 C flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
5 C chocolate chips
2 C sweetened coconut
2 C chopped almonds

Pre-heat oven to 375.
Lightly grease cookie sheets. Combine dry ingredient, except the sugars, and set aside. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars together. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, stir in the vanilla. Stir in the dry ingredients until well mixed, then stir in the chocolate chips, coconut, and almonds. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
