  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 large cookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale

700g rolled puff pastry

25ml aquafaba

50g grated coconut

25g sugar

Decoration: vegan chocolate drops (or similar) for eyes

Instructions

Remove the puff pastry from the refrigerator 10 minutes before use and roll out.

Using the animal shape, cut out as many cookies as possible and place on a baking sheet.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (395°F).

In a saucepan, gently heat the aquafaba with the sugar to lukewarm, stirring with a spoon until the sugar dissolves. Then add the grated coconut and continue stirring until well mixed.

Spread the coconut topping over the cookie cutouts.

Place the tray in the oven at 200°C (395°F) for 10 minutes.

Decorate: To stick the chocolate drops for the eyes on the cookies, I mixed some powdered sugar with lemon juice. You could also melt some chocolate or use icing from a tube.

Notes

You can use any cookie cutter shape you’d like for these puff pasty cookies. The puff pastry will expand a bit, so I’d recommend not using shapes with too much detail.
