Milky Coconut Biscuits
Ingredients:
For the biscuits:
1/2 cup self-raising flour
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup icing sugar
For the filling:
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup desiccated coconut
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional for decoration:
Extra desiccated coconut, toasted
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and icing sugar until light and fluffy.
Gently mix in the self-raising flour until a soft dough forms.
Pipe or shape the dough into small rosettes or rounds on the prepared tray.
Bake for 10–12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden. Let the biscuits cool completely on a wire rack.
In a bowl, mix the sweetened condensed milk, desiccated coconut, and vanilla extract until well blended.
Spread a spoonful of filling on the flat side of one biscuit and sandwich it with another. Press gently to stick them together.
(Optional) Roll or sprinkle the biscuit edges in toasted desiccated coconut.
