Coconut Funfetti Cookies

Sweets

14 Apr












When I was growing up, I would make “Better than Boys” cookies which I named myself. We have all heard of “Better than Sex” cake, which I of course thought was extremely scandalous when I was young. The name I gave my cookies is much more PG.


 


I think these cookies are going to be a bigger hit with children mainly because most kids love the taste of Funfetti. They are really quick and easy to make so they could be great to make for children’s parties or an after school snack. They are very sweet but have a lot less sugar and fat than a lot of other cookies. There are other variations that would be fun to try with theses cookies as well. How cute would they be with Cadbury eggs on top for Easter? You can add other toppings or mix-ins to customize them. I think next time I will even add some coconut or almond extract.


 


I wanted to make a healthier version of my loved Better than Boys cookies. The original recipe calls for 1/3 cup vegetable oil which I replaced with applesauce. Cake mixes also used to have 18.9 ounces in them and now they have just over 15 ounces so I added coconut flour so they wouldn’t be runny. I get my coconut flour at Costco, but if you don’t have it on hand you can add normal white flour instead.

Printable recipe

Ingredients
1 Funfetti cake mix
2 eggs
1/3 cup applesauce
2/3 cup coconut flour
Sweetened coconut
Directions
1. Mix cake mix, eggs, flour and applesauce with a spoon in a bowl.
2. Using a spoon, scoop batter evenly onto two greased cookie sheets. I made 21 cookies.
3. Spray flat bottom of a cup lightly with cooking spray and smash cookies until they are a half inch thick, then top with desired amount of sweetened coconut flakes. 
4. Bake at 375 for about 8 minutes, or until edges become very lightly browned. The cookies will be very soft but will harden a bit after they cool. Do not overcook them or the texture won’t be very moist. 
5. Cool on cooling racks then store in airtight container.

Happy Sunday! Tell me the most important things yo Happy Sunday! Tell me the most important things you focus on teaching your kids? 👇🏻

For me, it’s teaching them who they are which is children of God and where to find peace and direction.

The thing I need to work on teaching them more is how to clean up after themselves 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 Give me your best tips! Tyler and I have started to say we will give away the items that they don’t clean up. If they aren’t responsible enough to take care of them, they aren’t responsible enough to own them.

Fun times in the Parcell house right now! 😂 #parcellsundayselfie 5/15/22

This is the best pic I got with my 3 today 😂 Baby is the size of a 🍋 lemon, Harris swore that was his best smile, and Tyler’s finger just had to make itself known in the corner of the pic! Goldie was the most excited about this 😂👯‍♀️

I’m also thinking of those of you who are struggling to grow your families and those of you who have lost your mothers so this day brings up some sadness. ❤️❤️❤️ #parcellsundayselfie #mothersday2022 #mybabiesforever
Baby Parcell popped last week!! 13 weeks! Goldie i Baby Parcell popped last week!! 13 weeks! Goldie is in LOVE with her baby sister or brother and always talks to my belly first thing before she talks to me 😂 She’ll pat my belly gently and say, “hi, baby!” I’m excited to see her become a big sister and for Harris to be a big brother!

Also - CRAZY fact that always blows my mind🤯 the baby in my belly is technically the same age as the twins because the embryos were fertilized at the same time. This embryo was just frozen for 6 years. HOW?!! 😂 #ivfsuccess #goldie_says #frozenembryotransfer #13weekspregnant
Happy Sunday! What do you love to do on Sundays th Happy Sunday! What do you love to do on Sundays that you normally don’t do on other days? One of the things we have started doing after church is @comefollowmecolorclub with my kids! They learn about that week’s lesson (we are studying the Old Testament this year) as they learn to draw something. It’s so much fun for them and feels great for me as parent because they’re having fun while learning about the gospel of Jesus Christ. I got a code for you because I know many of you would be interested as well! Code JENICA gets you 50% off your first month or 20% off the year.

Now give me your good ideas! What makes the sabbath a delight for you? #parcellsundayselfie 5/1/22 #sundaybest #sundayblessings
