I have created a Coconut Shortbread Cookie using So Delicious Coconut Milk featuring two different glaze options. These gluten-free, vegan cookies are simple to make, taste delicious and are a great alternative to packaged animal cookies. Kids will love these cookies and won’t ever guess they are healthy.

• 1/4 cup coconut flour
• 1/4 cup tapioca flour

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/3 cup  coconut oil (solid form)
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp apple sauce
• approx. 6 tbsp water

• 1/4 cup Powdered Sugar

Glaze 2
