Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks of cold butter - cut into 1-tablespoon pieces)
  • 1/3 cup semi sweet chocolate (melted )
  • 1 tbsp shredded coconut (toasted, for sprinkling)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C, and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine shredded coconut, sugar, lemon juice, flour and vanilla extract in a food processor. Pulse a few times until combined.
  • Add the butter and pulse more until dough is combined and smooth. The dough will be a bit dry but that's okay. Lightly knead the dough until smooth, but if the dough is still too dry you can add a tbsp of water.
  • Shape dough into a ball, and roll it out to 1/4" thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut out cookies using the cookie cutters.
  • Place cutouts on parchment paper on a baking sheet and bake for 13-15 minutes.
  • Transfer cookies to a wire rack, when completely cooled drizzle with melted chocolate, and sprinkle with toasted shredded coconut.
