Recipe Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to preheat.

  2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the Crisco shortening, butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.

  3. Sift Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder.

  4. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the sifted dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition. Then, fold in the shredded coconut and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed.

  5. Form Dough: Shape the dough into a roll, ensuring it’s compact and even.

  6. Chill Dough: Wrap the dough roll in plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm. This step helps the dough hold its shape and enhances the flavors.

  7. Prepare Baking Sheets: Grease your cookie sheets lightly to prevent the cookies from sticking during baking.

  8. Slice or Drop Dough: Once chilled, slice the dough roll into even rounds, or use a teaspoon to drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, leaving some space between each cookie for spreading.

  9. Bake: Place the cookie sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown around the edges.

  10. Cool and Enjoy: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Once cooled, serve and enjoy these delightful Swedish Coconut Cookies with your favorite beverage or as a sweet snack any time of the day!

These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for several days, but chances are they’ll disappear long before then! Enjoy the taste of Sweden with every chewy and coconutty bite of these irresistible cookies. Happy baking! πŸ₯₯πŸͺ
