Snowed In Coconut Cup Cookies

Snow ruined my Saturday night. I made the best of it.

Inspired by the wintery white stuff all around me and trapped in my apartment, I started out looking for recipes that involved one egg and no milk. I came across this neat coconut cup cookie recipe. It sounded easy, so I made half of it (there are no need for 12 cookies at a table for one).

The best part about this blizzard is that I learned how easy it is to make pie crust in my food processor. Seriously, really easy. I pretty much just tossed in a cup of flour and half a stick of butter, then pulsed the processor slowly adding water as I went. The results were fabulous.


After forming the cups in my muffin tin, I baked for 10 minutes and added the fillings. Seeing as I didn't have any gross marmalade like the recipe called for, I decided to mix it up. Two cups had guava paste, two had chocolate chips and two had blueberry jam. All were good, but it was hard to tell them apart!
