Ingredients

Original recipe weights. Small quantities stay in measuring spoons; eggs stay as counts. 1 kg = 1,000 g.

Let’s bake

  1. 1

    Beat butter and sugar until creamy. Sift in flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

  2. 2

    Mix in coconut, milk and vanilla just until a dough forms. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Shape small portions into discs and place on a lined tray.

  4. 4

    Bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes. Cool on the tray; they crisp as they cool.
