Coconut cookies: an exotic treat


When we think about Spanish sweets and desserts we rarely think at first of coconut. It is true that coconut is not very common in Spanish recipes. Nevertheless, since I have memory, coconut cookies were around. For me they are a classic remembering my childhood, and the recipe couldn't be easier. Remember: sometimes the better experiences come from the easiest recipes. Enjoy!




Ingredients:

-3 cups coconut flour
-1 cup condensed milk
-1 egg
-1 drop almond essence

Directions:

1-Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and set aside for some minutes to let the flavors combine.
2-Preheat the oven at 200ºC / 390ºF. Form small balls or nuts with the help of your hands or a piping bag, and put them on a tray covered with baking paper. Bake for about 20 min or until they are golden brown. Let them cool completely before eating. Store in a metallic can.
