ooooooh its time for click and event..!
this is the first time i'm contributing for an event and i'm so excited !
well about the click.. i'm a clumsy photographer trying to figure out how to take a good photo
many thanx to the jugalbandits from jugalbandi for motivating me on this Herculian task..
i got inspired by their click monthly event.

i have used a basic recipe here ,as i'm still experimenting on baking ! but it sure tastes good.

dry dessicated coconut (store bought) - 1 1/2 cups
vanilla with sugar (store bought) - 1 sachet net weight being 7g / Vanilla essence
Chocolate powder - 2 tbspns

Method
  • In a large bowl add the all purpose flour , sugar , coconut and vanilla
  • make sure the sugar is well powdered
  • add in the butter(200 gms) and keeps mixing so that the flour is well coated with the butter
  • when done take about 1 cup of this and set aside
  • to this 1 cup add the chocolate powder and the remaining butter and mix it well

Hi pooja,
Great and a cool creation dear.
Your cookies are so so tasty i tried yesterday.
I was thinking twice to add dry coconut because of the coconut smell but really, it is the best taste enhancer.
And hats off to u with the presentation creativity.
I thought only talented professionals can get such creative presentations.
But you have proved my thinking wrong with your cookies.
Really the bracelet one is so nice.
My friends kids enjoyed them like wearing to to their hands and playing.
Dude you are cooooooooooool
