sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

Honey offers natural sweetness, while brown sugar can be less expensive.

Cream together 1 stick of room temperature butter and 1 cup of brown sugar until well blended.

Add fresh grated coconut and mix well.

Gradually add 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour until a firm dough forms, using a strainer to incorporate flour.

Knead the dough lightly with hands to achieve the right texture.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface until thin.

Cut the dough into shapes using a biscuit cutter or glass.

Transfer the cut biscuits to a baking pan using a spatula.

Bake at 350°F for 25 minutes, flipping the biscuits halfway through for even browning.

Let cool on a wire rack before serving.
