Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup (150g) coconut sugar
  • 1 large (50g) egg
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup (55g) almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
  • 1 cup (120g) powdered coconut sugar
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp (2.5ml) vanilla extract
  • natural food coloring

Instructions:

  1. Cream together the softened butter and coconut sugar until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
  2. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully emulsified.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a soft dough forms. Wrap in plastic and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  5. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  6. Roll the chilled dough to 1/4 inch thickness on a floured surface and stamp out shapes using graduation-themed cutters.
  7. Place cookies on a parchment-lined sheet with 2 inches of space between them. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden-brown. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Whisk together powdered coconut sugar, coconut milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Divide into bowls and add natural food coloring.
  9. Pipe the glaze onto the cooled cookies. Allow the glaze to harden for approximately 2 hours.
  10. Place two cookies per bag, add a personalized tag, and tie with a satin ribbon.
