Coconut Biscuits

Make sure the butter is cold for flakier biscuits.

Cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs for the right texture.

Do not overmix the dough to keep the biscuits tender.

Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop the biscuits onto the baking sheet for uniform size.

Serve the biscuits warm for the best flavor.

Remember, the key to great biscuits is minimal handling of the dough.

Can I use unsweetened coconut instead of sweetened?

Yes, you can use unsweetened coconut, but the biscuits will be less sweet. You can add additional sugar to compensate for it.

What can I substitute for half & half?

You can use whole milk, a mixture of milk and cream, or even buttermilk for a tangy flavor.

Is it necessary to toast the coconut?

Toasting the coconut gives it more flavor, but you can use it untoasted if preferred.

Can I add other ingredients to these biscuits?

Yes, you can add ingredients like nuts, dried fruit, or spices if desired.

How should I store leftover biscuits?

Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Can I make the dough ahead of time?

It's best to bake the biscuits immediately after making the dough for the best texture.
