Isn’t a thick frosted sugar cookie one of the best comfort foods out there? I love sugar cookies and I love sugar cookie squares even more because they are quicker and easier to make (with less cleanup) but they taste just as good as the individual cookie. I know I post a lot of sugar cookie recipes, it’s just one of my favorites so it’s likely you’ll see even more variations on it in the future.
Coconut Sugar Cookie Squares
Have I told you yet this Coconut Buttercream Frosting is my all-time favorite frosting? I made it to frost the coconut cupcakes I made a few days ago and it got me thinking of what else I would love to use it for. It is highly addictive stuff! I could sit and eat it by the heaping spoonfuls. Now, imagine a fluffy, sweet, coconut-infused sugar cookie covered with silky smooth, fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth coconut frosting, and this is what you get. I like to top these Coconut Sugar Cookie Squares with some coconut flakes (toasting them first would be a really fun touch!) but if you don’t like the texture of shredded coconut just skip it. You could even drizzle some crushed pineapple on top! It would be so fun to pair this coconut cookie with some pineapple sherbet for an island-inspired dessert that’s perfect for a luau or beach-themed party treat. Let’s just say it’s very likely to be one of the best sugar cookies you will ever eat! I know I’m in love. Enjoy!
