Milky Coconut Biscuits – A Kid-Friendly Treat!

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

1. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and icing sugar together until light and fluffy.
2. Add the desiccated coconut, self-raising flour, and milk powder. Mix until well combined.
3. Gradually add the liquid milk and mix until a soft dough forms.
   • Tip: If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle in a little extra flour. If it’s too dry, add a splash more liquid milk.

Step 2: Shape the Biscuits

1. Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, portion the dough into small balls.
2. Roll each ball in extra desiccated coconut to coat evenly.
3. Place the coated balls on a prepared baking tray, leaving space between each one.
4. Use a fork to gently press down on each ball, creating a pattern.

Step 3: Bake

1. Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F).
2. Bake the biscuits for 18 minutes, or until they are slightly golden brown.
3. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
