Coconut Pineapple Mango Cookie Cups

By cecelia26_

Coconut, pineapple, and mango cookie cups are like an island vacation in one bite! You won't be disappointed with this recipe.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
• 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 3/4 sweetened flaked coconut
• 2/3 cup pineapple mango jam

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325°F.

Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add flour mixture and mix until combined.

Put the coconut in a shallow bowl or pie plate.

Roll one tablespoon of dough (I used a #50 scoop) into a ball. Roll in the coconut to coat, then place in the cup of a greased mini muffin tin. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cookie is starting to brown and firm up.

Remove from oven and using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make an indentation in the center of each cookie.

Fill with a teaspoon of jam. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until cookies are firm and lightly browned on the sides. Remove to wire racks to cool.
