Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In the bowl of a standing mixer, using the paddle attachment (or an electric mixer) cream the butter and 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar on medium speed, until light and fluffy.

Lowering the speed to the lowest setting mix in the flour and salt until they are well combined.

Using a rubber spatula, stir in the coconut and lavender.

Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet.

Roll dough into 1-2 inch balls, spreading them about 2-inchs apart.

Bake for 17-25 minutes (depending on size.)

Roll the warm balls in confectioners' sugar, let cool.
