Chef's Tips
One or max two is enough, although they are gorgeous they are heavy.
Yummy, better than viscounts!
Hi, please could you let me know the number of OZ required of flour and coconut, thank you :-)
I was going to say the same. I have not ever put cream in cookies!Cream butter and sugar makes much more sense!!
At a guess i would say it meant - cream sugar and butter together, and later cream butter and icing sugar together - not that there is cream as well.
There is no mention of cream in the ingredients list, but there is in the main body of the recipe.Can you advise?
