Coconut & Oatmeal Cookies

It was one of those cold nights after dinner that I was craving something sweet, something bite-sized to wash down with a hot cup of tea. After much deliberation over the contents of the pantry I threw together a batter for cookies. The flavours are similar to that of traditional ANZAC cookies.

COCONUT & OATMEAL COOKIES

Into my KitchenAid Bowl I combined 1 block of chopped unsalted butter and one cup of brown sugar.

After mixing these I added 1 egg and a tsp of vanilla extract.

I then added 1/2 a cup each of rolled oats and desiccated coconut.

Lastly I gradually added between 1-1 1/2 cups of self raising flour

(until "cookie dough" consistency is reached)

Using a spoon I dropped balls of dough onto a tray lined with baking paper.

Cookies are baked for 15-20 minutes at 180 celcius until golden brown.
