When
I am making cookies to share, I usually try to pair them up so people have a
choice. I look for flavors that complement and coordinate. Because the
Lime Slice Cookies were so zesty and tangy, I wanted something sweet, but still
limey, to go alongside. Lime and coconut are always a delicious match!
Put the lime in the coconut!
Chewy Coconut
Cookie Crisps
1 cup all-purpose flour
Lime-Glazed Chewy Coconut Cookie Crisps (alongside Lime Slice Cookies) |
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking powder
pinch of salt
½ cup softened butter
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 ½ cups flaked coconut
Lime Glaze
½ lb confectioner’s sugar
2 tablespoons softened butter
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon lime zest
For
cookies:
Preheat
oven to 350 degrees.
In a large
bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
In a
separate bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated and brown
sugars. Beat in egg and vanilla. Mix flour and butter mixtures, then stir in
coconut. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto
ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, until cookies are light brown
and edges are toasted. Move cookies to
cooling rack and drizzle with glaze while still warm.
For Glaze:
Mix together confectioner’s sugar and
butter. Add lime zest and lime juice and
mix until well combined (glaze should be thin).
