Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 cup Desiccated Coconut
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
- 1/2 cup Milk
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients and preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that everything is ready when you start mixing.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, desiccated coconut, sugar, and baking powder until well combined. This step is crucial for evenly distributing the ingredients.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, cream the softened butter until smooth. Gradually add the sugar, continuing to mix until the mixture is light and fluffy. This will help create a tender biscuit.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Slowly add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Shape the Biscuits: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop the dough onto a lined baking sheet, leaving space between each biscuit for spreading.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
- Cool and Enjoy: Once baked, allow the biscuits to cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Enjoy your Milky Coconut Biscuits warm or at room temperature!
Notes
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure your butter and milk are at room temperature for better mixing.
- Don’t Overwork the Dough: Mix just until combined to maintain a tender texture.
- Use Quality Coconut: Opt for unsweetened desiccated coconut for the best flavor.
- Chill the Dough: If the dough is too sticky, refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes before shaping.
- Watch the Baking Time: Ovens can vary, so keep an eye on your biscuits to prevent burning.
