Did you know?How to split a raw egg for whites and yolks. Three options:

• Over the container, gently break the egg with a knife into 2 parts and drain the protein, shifting the yolk from one half of the shell to the other.
• Break the egg and pour its contents into the palm of your hand, holding it over the prepared bowl. The protein flows through the fingers, while the yolk remains in the hand.
• We take a glass and install a funnel in it for pouring liquids. Break an egg into it. The protein flows into the glass, the yolk remains in the funnel.

How to decorate

Decorate cookies with melted chocolate. To do this, break half a bar of chocolate into pieces, put in a bowl and melt in a water bath, stirring occasionally. When the chocolate mass becomes homogeneous, without lumps, we begin to decorate the cookies. I offer you 2 decoration options:

• Dip the top half of the cookie completely or half into the melted chocolate and spread on parchment paper in 1 layer. When the chocolate hardens, the cookies can be stacked on a dish with a “slide”.

• Dip the bottom half of the cookie in the chocolate and place on baking paper, chocolate side down. When all the cookies are laid out, the remaining chocolate is once again heated in a water bath, poured into a plastic bag so that the mass is in one of its corners. Cut off the tip of the bag to form a small hole. We clamp the free part of the bag between the thumb and forefinger, and place the corner with the chocolate mass in the palm of our hand. Squeezing the palm, we apply a pattern in the form of zigzags or spirals on the upper surface of the cookie. When the chocolate hardens, the cookies can be without special efforts Peel off the baking paper and place on a serving platter.

I still had coconut flakes, and I remembered that back in the spring at the passing marathon #cookie_fair, one of the subscribers Yulia Sharova shared a recipe for delicious cookies that I still have not tried. I got into the Instagram archive and launched the recipe. It turned out the most tender, fragrant and delicious cookies. Julia, thanks!

How to make coconut biscuits (step by step recipe with photos)

1. Break two eggs into a bowl, beat with a mixer until smooth, add salt and beat again a little.
   
2. Sugar (100 g) combine with melted butter(150 g). We mix.
   
   
3. We combine the butter-sugar mixture and the egg together, we get a heterogeneous dough with flakes.
   
4. Add 100 g coconut flakes. You can make it yourself from fresh coconut, you can buy it by weight or in bags. Weighted very quickly absorbs all odors, so I do not recommend using it. Buy in bags from trusted sellers.
   
5. Pour flour and baking powder into the dough.
   
6. We knead the dough. It turns out slightly sticky to the hands, tear off pieces (the size of a small tangerine), spread on a baking sheet covered with parchment.
   
   
   
7. We send a baking sheet to a preheated oven to 180 C for 25-30 minutes. The exact baking time depends on the power of your oven. The cookie will be ready when it is browned and when you press your finger on the surface, the hole will disappear, “spring”.
