Ube Coconut Cookies

Step 1

Beat the butter and sugar together until the butter is light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 2

Add eggs and ube extract. Mix together until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the coconut flakes, and mix the dry ingredients together.

Step 4

With the stand mixer on low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients a little bit at a time, just until combined (do not over mix).

Step 5

Using a 1 ¾ inch ice cream scoop, scoop out the cookies onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

Step 6

Chill the dough for at least 1 hour in the fridge.

Step 7

Bake in a pre-heated 350ºF (175ºC) oven for 10-15 minutes, or just until the edges of the cookie has set (do not over bake).

Step 8

Allow cookies to fully cool before enjoying
