Crunchy Eggless Coconut Cookies
Hello guys! My Summers are going just great. This Summers all I ever wanted to do was just sit back and relax, get my hands on a lot of cookbooks and bake a lot of yummy desserts. And until now it's going so great. Today morning, I baked these Eggless Coconut Cookies.
Coconut Cookies are the best summer cookies, you guys! It's crunchy, buttery, and most importantly so easy to bake. I just love the simplicity of this recipe. All you need is some Butter and Coconuts along with other basic Cookie dough ingredients to bake these perfectly crunchy and golden Coconut Cookies.
I just love to use Coconut in my recipes. Call me a tropical food lover, I think Coconut just enhances the flavors of everything. It brings in a nutty texture which is just so tasty. Also, Coconuts make for a perfect addition to both desserts or savory recipes. Be it my Key Lime Coconut Cupcakes or my Lemon Coconut Cake or even my Coconut Chicken Curry, my love and passion for Coconuts is so well reflected through my recipes! Have a look at these.
The ingredients I have used to make These Eggless Coconut Cookies
- Butter - I have used softened Salted butter. It is very important that you use Softened Butter. If you use Melted butter, it'll flatten your cookies. Having soft butter makes your cookies crunchy!
- Granulated Sugar - I have used granulated sugar to make my Eggless Coconut Cookies. It gives the perfect sweetness and color to my cookies.
- Vanilla Extract - I have used Pure Vanilla Extract. If you do not have Pure Vanilla Extract, it's always a great idea to invest in one. It'll make your Cookies and cakes so much better.
- Honey - I like to use just a tad bit of honey because it adds a very natural flavor to my cookies. But, of course, this is totally optional. If you don't want you can always skip this.
- All-Purpose Flour - I like to make sure that my cookie dough is not too dry and neither too wet. For this, I always use a balanced amount of flour. In this case, I have used just 1 cup of flour.
- Cornstarch - I always love to throw in some cornstarch while baking cookies. This way I make sure that my cookies are soft and chewy.
- Baking Soda - After all, can any baking be complete without baking soda? Probably not. So, there you go, just 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
- Coconut - Finally, the most important that we just can't forget is desiccated coconut. After all, we are making coconut cookies, how can we even think of skipping it.
- Milk - Milk is very essential as it binds everything together and gives a smooth texture to your cookie dough. Although be sure to use cold milk. Very hot milk will flatten your cookies. Also, do not overuse milk, cookie dough should be lumpy and stick to the spatula when you fold it.
