If I could, I would add coconut flakes to any baked goods. For example, cheesecakes with coconut flakes take on a completely different taste. Delicious!

What wonderful coconut cookies these are! 😍 The recipe is simple, kneads quickly, and bakes the same way. In the absence of a mixer, I whipped everything before adding coconut flakes with a blender with a whisk attachment in a deep blender glass, it whips perfectly. Added a little less sugar. But I poured in coconut flakes straight from the heart, 140 grams instead of 100, so a little less flour. The dough did not turn out viscous due to such an amount of chips; rather, it turned out thick. And there were 23 cookies. At the same time, they did not spread, but rather rose slightly. What a breathtaking aroma there was during baking! I kept them in the oven for 18 minutes, they were slightly golden around the edges by this point. And I think there was no need anymore, because it turned out perfect. The cookies are so airy, tender, slightly crispy on the outside, melting in your mouth. Delight! Perfect taste. I will bake again, it’s just a miracle, not a cookie

A little advice that might be useful to someone. When making cookies, it is better to use natural coconut flakes rather than store-bought ones. To do this, you need to peel the coconut and grate it on a medium grater. Then add coconut to the dough. The cookies turn out delicious, because such chips are moister, unlike store-bought ones, they are a bit dry). I used to use store-bought coconut too, but when I made cookies with freshly grated coconut, I almost gave up on it. I only use it when I need it faster.

Hello, If you make it with vegetable oil, is the recipe the same? I haven't tried beating vegetable oil and sugar. I usually added it at the end after kneading. How's it going here?
