Ingredients
The following ingredients have 16 Servings
- 2 3/4 cups (358g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup (168g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups (310g) sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 tsp coconut extract
- 1/2 cup (104g) sugar, for rolling cookies
- 7 oz white/vanilla melting wafers (I used Ghirardelli)
- Sprinkles
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside. 2
- . Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium sized bowl and set aside.
- . Cream the butter and sugar together in a larger mixer bowl on medium speed until light in color and fluffy.
- . Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until well combined after each. Add the coconut extract an mix until well combined.
- . Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix until the dough comes together and is combined.
- . Create 1 1/2 tablespoon sized balls of cookie dough. Gently roll into a ball, then roll each ball in sugar to coat. Set the balls on the baking sheet.
- . Use the bottom of a glass to press down lightly on the balls of dough, so that the dough balls are about 1/2 inch wide.
- . Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes. The cookies will spread a bit and the centers will look soft. Don’t over bake. 9.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on baking sheets for 3-4 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. 10
- When the cookies are cool, add the melting wafers to a small bowl and melt according to package instructions. 11
- Add the melted chocolate to a piping bag with a small round icing tip (I used Wilton 3) and drizzle over the cookies. If you won’t have a piping bag and icing tip, you can use a ziplock bag and snip off a small part of one corner of the bag. 12.
- dd the sprinkles to the chocolate while still melted. Allow chocolate to dry. 13.
- ookies will stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days.
