For me food and memories go hand in hand. These cookies remind me of being a child and helping my grandma make similar ones to these. Some of my best memories are from when I was younger and cooking in my grandmas kitchen. I hope my boys grow up with similar memories.

Crunchy Coconut Cookies
- Total Time: 22
Ingredients
Scale
- 150g sugar
- 125g butter, diced
- 2 teas vanilla bean paste (or essence/extract)
- 2 tabs coconut oil
- 1 egg
- 220g self raising flour
- 80g desiccated coconut
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
- Add butter, coconut oil, sugar and vanilla to bowl.
- Blitz on speed 6 for 15 secs. Scrape down.
- Blitz on speed 4 for 1 minute until pale.
- Add egg through the hole.
- Blitz on speed 4 for 1 minute.
- Add flour and coconut.
- Blitz on speed 5 until combined. I find I sometimes have to use the spatula to help this process.
- Roll into balls, place on tray and flatten slightly with fingers. This makes 24 cookies.
- Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until slightly golden
Notes
- I find this mixture can sometimes be a little crumbly. If so just add a little more coconut oil and blitz. Or you can mould it in your hand to warm the butter and oil up making it easier to roll.
