Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the egg to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder to ensure even distribution.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until just combined.
Fold in the caraway seeds and shredded coconut, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Add the milk one tablespoon at a time to bring the dough together if it's too crumbly. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
Roll tablespoons of dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Flatten each ball slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon to create a disc shape.
Bake in the preheated oven on the middle rack for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve with a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy!
