Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams unsweetened desiccated coconut
- 100 grams butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.
Fold in the desiccated coconut until evenly distributed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing at a low speed until just combined.
Add milk one tablespoon at a time to bring the dough together if it feels too dry.
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each ball for spreading.
Gently flatten each ball with the back of a spoon or your fingers to about 1cm thickness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cooled biscuits in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
