Ingredients

2 sticks unsalted butter, softened

1/4 cup confectioner’s sugar, plus more for dusting

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 cups sweetened flaked coconut

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream butter with 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar until fluffy. Mix in flour and salt until they’re just combined. Stir in coconut.

Roll dough into 1-inch balls; place 2 inches apart on a baking sheet. Bake until just starting to brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Roll the warm cookies in confectioners’ sugar; let cool completely.
