Table of Contents
Ingredients You’ll Need
- ½ cup self-raising flour
- ½ cup butter, softened
- ½ cup icing sugar
- ½ cup desiccated coconut (plus extra for rolling)
- 3 tbsp milk powder
- 2 tbsp liquid milk
How to Make Milky Coconut Biscuits
1. Cream the Butter and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and icing sugar together until the mixture becomes pale and creamy. This step helps create a soft and airy texture in your biscuits.
2. Combine the Dry Ingredients
Add the desiccated coconut, self-raising flour, and milk powder. Stir until everything is evenly combined.
3. Add the Liquid Milk
Pour in the liquid milk and mix again.
- If the dough feels too sticky: Add a tiny bit more flour.
- If the dough feels too dry: Add a splash more milk.
You’re aiming for a soft dough that rolls easily into balls.
4. Shape Your Biscuits
Using a spoon or small scoop, portion the dough and roll each piece into small balls.
5. Coat & Press
Roll each dough ball in extra desiccated coconut so every biscuit gets a lovely coconut shell.
Place them on a lined baking tray and use a fork to gently press the top for a pretty biscuit pattern.
6. Bake
Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F).
Bake for about 18 minutes, just until the edges are lightly golden. Don’t overbake. These biscuits should stay soft!
7. Cool and Serve
Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
Serve with tea, coffee, or a cold glass of milk. Enjoy every bite! 😋💕
