Coconut Almond Cookies


These are soft and chewy cookies packed with the flavors of almonds and coconuts. Every bite of this cookie will take you to tropical paradise and back. These eggless cookies are a great addition to any cookie tray, and are best to share with friends and families. 


I received complimentary products to aid develop recipes and the views expressed are my own only. I have used Anolon baking sheet, Dixie Crystals pure cane sugar, and Taylor & College Almond extract paste in this recipe and they are the best. Anolon baking sheet transfers even heat to the baked goods resulting in best results every time. If you haven’t used Taylor & College extracts, I urge you to try as soon as possible. They are the best. I love the almond extract paste and it gives top notch flavor to the baked goods, just like in this cookie or Eggless Pear Almond Mini Loaves.


Let me explain the flavors of this cookie. It is not just any ordinary cookie. This cookie has flavors packed in every possible way. The almond flour and coconut flour along with all purpose flour forms the base. The added almond extract gives the exact almond flavor that you’d want to experience in every bite. In addition to that the added coconut flakes and chopped almonds give a lot of texture in these soft and chewy addictive cookies. Coconut and almond are perfect pairs, that's what I would call. Coconut Cookies and Almond Flour Sand Dollar Cookies are delicious cookies with coconut and almond flavors respectively. This cookie is like a marriage of both flavors. This cookie is like eating two of our traditional sweets, Badam katli and Coconut burfi. A win-win cookie for me.


There is one more flavor enhancer in these cookies. Almond Joy chocolates. These chocolate covered almond and coconut chocolates taste divine. This kind of perfectly fits with the flavors of the cookie and adds to the heavenly taste. Just chop a few of these chocolates and add it like chocolate chips. I highly recommend the addition of these or any other coconut based chocolates or candies. If you do not have any of those, substitute with regular chocolate chips and they taste great too. 


This recipe makes a decent amount of cookies and is easy to make too. It makes about 40 cookies, perfect to have some for you and share some with friends too. The flavors are addictive and I am giving a warning that you might end up making another batch. Or two! That happens to me. Sharing is fun and brings happiness, don’t you agree? These  eggless cookies are perfect to share with anyone who is allergic to eggs. These are also a great addition to any cookie trays
