Everyone needs their favorite holiday cookie recipe and this one just may just be yours. The combination of chocolate, nuts, coconut and delicate flaky butter cookie is heavenly, and the nuts can be omitted for those with allergies.
This cookie recipe has several steps but is not difficult to make. The butter cookie base can be made and baked in advance and frozen until needed. They don’t have to be thawed before filling and frosting.
The finished cookie freezes well, and is a satisfying and unique take on the quintessential holiday treat— the butter cookie. The most time-consuming part with these are rolling the cookies into balls. If you’re new to cookie baking, portion out all your dough first, before rolling into balls, so each one is the same size.
Perfect with a glass of red wine, or a strong cup of coffee.
