COCONUT CAKE BALLS
Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- Whisk together the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the egg, coconut milk, lemon juice, vanilla and coconut extract in a medium bowl until combined. Whisk in the coconut oil. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Pour the batter into the cake pan.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a rack to cool completely.
- For the frosting: Beat the butter with a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until creamy. Reduce the speed to low and gradually add the powdered sugar, beating to combine. Beat in the salt, vanilla and coconut milk.
- For the assembly: To make the cake balls, crumble the cake into a large bowl with your hands. Mix in the coconut, then mix in the frosting until it's combined. Line a quarter-sheet pan with parchment paper. Roll smooth 1/4-cup-sized balls and place on the parchment. Freeze until firm to the touch, about an hour.
- Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler or a microwave for 30-second increments, stirring after each. Stir in the oil. Add a few drops of food coloring, if using, and swirl it around. Do not mix it all the way together, so that the swirl is still visible. Using two forks, dip the chilled balls in the chocolate to coat evenly, then allow any excess to drip off. Place back on the parchment to harden at room temperature, about 30 minutes. Before it fully hardens, add three chocolate chips to each to look like a bowling ball!
GIANT SPRINKLE MACAROONS
Steps:
- For the macaroons: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the condensed milk, vanilla and almond extract. Mix in the coconut and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites and salt until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture, then gently fold in the sprinkles. Spoon lightly packed 2-inch balls of the mixture onto the baking sheets, 1 inch apart, and sprinkle the tops with more sprinkles.
- Bake until golden brown; begin checking for doneness at 18 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the topping: Place the sprinkles in a shallow dish. Microwave the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until melted (or melt in a saucepan over low heat, stirring often).
- Dip the bottoms of the macaroons in the chocolate, scrape off any excess and then dip the chocolate in the sprinkles. Place back on the parchment and let cool at room temperature or in the fridge. These can be kept at room temperature for about 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.

SPRINKLY ALMOND COOKIES
Crumbly, shiny almond cookies were a treat that I would get at Chinese restaurants growing up. Usually they were instead of, or in addition to, the classic fortune cookies, and they made that meal extra special. This version has sprinkles because it's the New Year; they're kind of like fireworks. And they are ever so slightly softer and chewier in the center than the crumbly ones I grew up with.

Steps:
- Place an oven rack in the middle position of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, sugars and salt until thoroughly combined and creamy. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, whisking to incorporate, then whisk in the almond extract. Add the almond flour and mix to combine using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Add the all-purpose flour and sprinkle in the baking soda. Mix until just combined. (The dough will be stiff.) Fold in the sprinkles.
- Into a bowl with the reserved egg whites, add a splash of water (about 1 teaspoon) and whisk to incorporate. Set aside.
- Using a 1 1/2-ounce ice cream scoop, scoop out a level portion of the dough and place on the prepared cookie sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, evenly spacing them apart. Press gently to flatten each dough ball to a healthy 1/2-inch thick. Brush the egg wash on the cookies, then top with additional sprinkles. Bake until lightly golden, begin checking at 12 minutes.
- Let cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes, then cool completely on a rack. Store in an airtight container.
ITALIAN BAKERY COOKIES
These were some of my favorite cookies growing up - there were a bunch of amazing Italian bakeries outside of Chicago and I was always drawn to these cookies because of the sprinkles. But what really gets me is that soft layer of jam in the middle that makes the cookies a little bit chewy (and that splash of almond is irresistible as well).

Yield 1 1/2 dozen sandwich cookies
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Place oven racks in the top and bottom third positions. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder in a medium mixing bowl. Add the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla and almond extracts and beat until light and smooth, 1 minute more. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture. Beat until just combined.
- Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large open star tip. Pipe the dough onto the prepared baking sheets in 2-inch lines, spaced 1-inch apart (you should be able to fit 12 cookies per tray). Bake in the oven until the cookies are set on top and golden around the edges, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool completely on the sheet trays. Once the cookies are set, transfer all onto one tray, leaving 1 cooled tray to bake the remaining dough (you'll have enough for about 12 more cookies).
- Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a double boiler or in the microwave on 50-percent power in 15 second increments. Pipe or spread the flat sides of half of the cookies with about 1 teaspoon jam each, going almost to the edges. Sandwich with the remaining cookies (you should have about 18 sandwiches). Allow the jam to set for 2 hours or overnight, if you have time. Otherwise, it's okay to go ahead and start dipping your sandwich cookies into the chocolate (it just might be a little slippery.).
- Dip the lower third of the cookies in the chocolate letting the excess drip back into the bowl. Sprinkle with the sprinkles on both sides. Lay back on a parchment lined baking sheet and pop the cookies in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to let the chocolate set.
- Tip: To make uniformly sized cookies, use a ruler and a marker or pen to draw 2-inch lines on 2 sheets of parchment paper in a 3-by-4-inch grid. Flip the parchment over and place on 2 baking sheets so the marker side is down but you can still see the lines. Using the lines as a template, pipe the dough in 2-inch lines on the baking sheets, using a paring knife or shears, if needed, to cut the dough from the piping bag in straight edges.

GINGERSNAP COCONUT ICEBOX CAKE
Steps:
- Line a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with parchment to overhang the edges and set aside. Carefully remove the coconut milk cans from the refrigerator so the fat and liquid remain separated. Spoon the hardened coconut cream from the can and place in a large bowl (save the liquid for another use, such as smoothies).
- Beat the coconut cream in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until fluffy and medium peaks form. Reduce the speed to low and add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, ground ginger, zest of 1/2 lime and salt and beat until just combined. Gently fold in the crystalized ginger with a rubber spatula.
- Place 8 of the Gingersnap Cookies in an even layer on the bottom of the prepared loaf pan (they may overlap just slightly and that is okay). Spread a heaping 1/2 cup of the coconut cream mixture on top, then repeat the process 4 more times, ending with the remaining coconut cream on top. Garnish with the zest from the other lime half, the toasted coconut and sprinkles (if using).
- Cover and refrigerate until the cookies are completely softened, 6 hours and up to overnight.
- Stir together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, baking powder, allspice, baking soda, cloves and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on high speed until light, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and add the egg and molasses. Beat until well combined. Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed until the dough comes together and cleans the sides of the bowl.
- Divide the dough into 2 portions. Lay out a piece of plastic wrap about 16 inches long. Form one portion of the dough into a log and place at one end of the plastic. Roll the plastic around the dough and roll with your hands to make a log about 8 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide. Twist the ends to seal well. Repeat with the remaining dough. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours. (You can also freeze the dough, using directly from the freezer.)
- To bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F with a rack in the top and bottom thirds. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Remove the plastic from a dough log and cut 1/4-inch-thick rounds (a serrated knife works well), placing them about an inch apart on the baking sheets. Bake, rotating the sheets from top to bottom halfway through, until the cookies are crisp and golden on the bottoms and edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining dough.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Spread pecan halves on a parchment lined baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until roasty and fragrant. Remove from the oven and cool. Transfer the pecans to a cutting board and give them a rough chop. Allow chopped pecans to cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter, half of the sugar (1/4 cup), and vanilla until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula and add the flour, cocoa powder and salt mixture. Mix on low until all of the dry ingredients are incorporated. Add the pecans and the sprinkles and mix until just combined.
- Line a work surface with a large piece of parchment paper. Scrape the dough out onto the parchment paper and gather it together with your hands. Roll into a 6 1/2-inch-long log that is about 2 inches wide. Tightly wrap the dough in parchment paper, twisting the ends so it's airtight. Refrigerate until the dough is firm, for 2 hours or overnight.
- Set an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Spread the remaining granulated sugar on a plate and roll the log in the sugar to coat completely.
- Slice the log into eighteen 1/4-inch discs and place them on the baking sheet evenly spaced apart. Bake in the center of the oven until the cookies are no longer shiny and slightly puffed; begin checking for doneness at 16 minutes. Let cool on the pans.
- Using a 1/2-ounce scoop or a spoon, dollop about 1 tablespoon of the filling on the bottom of 12 of the cooled cookies. Sandwich with another half and smush lightly. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container on the counter until you eat them all.
- Cream together butter and caramel until smooth. Add powdered sugar and salt and whip until combined and light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Beat the butter in a large bowl using an electric whisk or in a stand mixer until very soft. Beat in both sugars and the vanilla until light and fluffy, then beat in the egg until just combined. Sift in the flour and a pinch of salt and stir to combine. Fold in 100g of the toasted coconut.
- Roll the dough into 14-16 balls (about 45g each) and arrange on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment, well spaced apart. Flatten each slightly using the palm of your hand and bake for 12-15 mins until golden brown and slightly firm to the touch. Leave to cool on the sheet briefly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Break the chocolate into pieces and tip into a heatproof bowl, then melt in 20-second bursts in the microwave. Or set the bowl over a pan of simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water, stirring until smooth. Dip one half of each cookie into the melted chocolate, then lay on a sheet of baking parchment and sprinkle with the remaining toasted coconut. Leave to set for about 30 mins.
