Coconut Biscuits
Many recipes using coconut require that the grated nut be first dried before being used. This recipe makes use of the freshly grated nut. 4 oz butter. 2 teacups sugar. 3 cups fresh grated coconut (not dried or desiccated). 3 cups flour. 3 teaspoons baking powder. 2 tablespoons golden syrup.
Cream butter and sugar, then add syrup and beat well Stir in coconut, and gradually add the flour and baking powder. If coconut seems very moist, fa little more flour may be needed. Place in spoonfuls on greased slide and bake in a moderate oven.
