How to Make Key Lime And Coconut Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and key lime juice until well combined.
  3. Gradually add the flour, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Stir in the shredded coconut.
  5. Taste the mixture. If using sweetened coconut, you may not need to add any extra sugar. If desired, gradually add the granulated sugar, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your preferred sweetness.
  6. Drop rounded teaspoons of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. They will spread as they bake.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers will still be slightly soft.
  8. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cooled, store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
