3⁄4 lb
(3 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
|
1 cup
sugar
|
1 tsp
pure vanilla extract
|
3 1⁄2 cup
flour
|
1⁄4 tsp
kosher salt
|
1
egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash
|
7 oz
sweetened flaked coconut
|
1
raspberry jam, and/or apricot jam
|
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In an electric mixer
fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar
until just combined, and then add the vanilla. Separately, sift together
the flour and salt. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture
to the creamed butter and sugar. Mix until the dough starts to come
together. Dump on a floured board and roll together into a flat disk.
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
- Roll the dough into 1
1/4-inch balls. (If you have a scale, they should each weigh 1-ounce.)
Dip each ball into the egg wash and then roll it in coconut. Place the
balls on an ungreased cookie sheet and press a light indentation into
the top of each with your finger. Drop 1/4 teaspoon of jam into each
indentation. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the coconut is a golden
brown. Cool and serve.
