Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened shredded coconut, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until a dough forms.
Add the milk to the dough and mix until just combined. The dough should be firm but pliable.
Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each scoop slightly with the back of a spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Remove the baking sheet 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 in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
