I call this Angel Dream Cookies, cause they look like you could be on Cloud Nine. This is a simple chocolate cookie recipe with a coconut frosting topping. I love coconut so much, so I make ALOT of desserts with coconut! These cookies are subtly sweet with the use of honey.

1/3.c Cocoa Powder Unsweetened
1 ½. Bob Red Mill All Purpose Flour
1/2c. Coconut Flour
½ tsp Baking Soda
½ tsp Sea Salt

2 Flax Eggs (2TBLS Ground Flax Mix With 6TBLS Water Let Sit 3 Min.)
1 1/3.c. Coconut Oil Melted
1/c. c. Shredded Coconut Flakes

1 can Coconut Milk or Coconut Cream (for topping) chill in fridge night before** see note below
1)Food Process All Ingredients Above*except coconut shreds and coconut cream* till well blended, then add coconut shreds and pulse for 1 min till mixed
2)Chill Dough For 20-30 minutes in Fridge, not longer or dough will become too hard
3)Preheat Oven to 350 degrees

6)Press you thumb into cookie to make a hole, don’t press too far, you want to have divot but you need there to be cookie to hold the coconut cream.
7).Bake for 7 min

Makes approx. 45 cookies
For extra fancy-ness dust cocoa powder on top
**if using coconut milk put in fridge over night to help separate coconut, you want the liquid to go to the bottom, if you are able to purchase Trader Joe's coconut cream, it is the best but also put in fridge over night and the whole can will be cream
