Description
Delightful bite-sized cookie cups filled with creamy coconut and topped with whipped cream, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1 cup whipped cream
- Chocolate shavings (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, shredded coconut, sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, cream the softened butter until smooth, then add the egg and vanilla extract. Blend well.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Grease a muffin tin and spoon in the cookie dough to form cups, pressing lightly into the bottoms and up the sides.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown. Test doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out clean.
- Allow to cool completely before removing from the muffin tin.
- Once cooled, fill each cup with coconut cream and top generously with whipped cream.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings before serving.
Notes
Keep cookie cups fresh by storing in an airtight container. Great for make-ahead dessert options.
