GRANDMA MABEL'S COCONUT WASHBOARD COOKIES



Grandma Mabel's Coconut Washboard Cookies image

An old recipe that has been modernized. Recipe is from when I was a little girl working in the kitchen beside my wonderful, loving grandmother Mabel Kennedy Sullivan. She said this was a favorite cookie of her beloved husband Frank B. Sullivan (who was a deep sea diver). Grandma showed me a real washboard and explained that is...

Provided by Colleen Sowa

Categories     Cookies

Time 4h35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4-1/2 to 5 c all purpose flour (may use a bit more or less depending on humidity)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 c butter
1/2 c shortening, butter flavor
2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 c coconut milk, unsweetened
1 c sweetened flaked coconut

Steps:

  • 1. Mix together well the first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • 2. In a very large bowl: Use an electric mixer on medium high speed to cream together the next 3 ingredients. Add the eggs and mix well.
  • 3. Add the vanilla to the coconut milk. Stir in alternating the flour mixture and the coconut milk mixture. Stir in the coconut.
  • 4. Make "logs" of dough in desired shape (round or rectangle). Wrap in wax paper and put in refrigerator for 3 hours.
  • 5. preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • 6. Using a sharp knife, slice the dough logs across to form 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick cookies. Place each cookie on parchment lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Use the tines of a fork that has been dipped in flour to make "lines" in the cookie. When tray is full, bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool completely on wire racks before storing in an airtight container.
  • 7. *** Another method of forming the cookies is pinching off about a Tablespoon of dough, form it into a little log, flatten the log with tines of a fork. **** Another method is to not refrigerate the dough, and use a cookie press. The disk has a long slit that is flat on one side and bumpy on the other side of the slit... the bumpy side points up. *********** depending on the coconut milk you use... you may want to use a bit less or add a bit more flour.
