2 cups sweetened flaked coconut |
ingredients for basic butter cookies |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
garnish: sweetened flaked coconut and coarse sugar |
Directions:
1. Pulse coconut in a food processor until finely ground.
2. Follow recipe for basic butter cookies, mixing in coconut and almond extract after adding flour. (To roll cookies into balls, see cooks' note, below.)
3. If garnishing, sprinkle cookies with flaked coconut and coarse sugar before baking.
4. Cooks' note: Instead of forming dough into a log and chilling, you can roll tablespoons of dough into 1 1/4-inch balls. Bake, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until bottoms are browned, about 15 minutes total.
