Coconut Butter Cookies

Full Recipe
Ingredients
80 g sugar

80 g butter (softened, unsalted preferred)

2 eggs

110 g all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

100 g shredded coconut

1 tsp vanilla extract

A pinch of saltCooking Directions
Prepare the baking essentials: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Cream the butter and sugar: In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This step ensures your cookies turn out tender and rich in flavor.

Add eggs and vanilla: Crack the eggs into the mixture, add the vanilla extract, and continue mixing until everything is smooth and well combined.

Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet mixture until a dough forms.

Incorporate shredded coconut: Stir in the shredded coconut, making sure it’s evenly distributed throughout the dough. This gives your cookies their chewy coconut texture.

Shape the cookies: Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll them lightly into balls. Place them on the prepared baking tray, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie as they will spread while baking.

Bake to perfection: Place the tray in the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges but still slightly soft in the center.

Cool and serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve with tea, coffee, or a glass of cold milk.
