The 'Public Lives, Secret Recipes' blog has found a way to turn tasty tacos into adorable cookies. While these miniature tacos might look like a savory treat, they are actually made from sugar cookies, shredded coconut and sour cherry candies.
These taco cookies are easy to make, but they do require a little bit of decorating finesse. To begin, you will need sugar cookie dough, shredded coconut, mashed brownies, sour cherry candies and a little bit of orange and green food coloring. Begin by baking your sugar cookies until they are slightly firm, yet still malleable. Fold the cookies into a taco shape and fill with mashed up brownies. Dye half the coconut flakes orange and the other half green. Then add the dyed coconut flakes to your cookie tacos to serve as the lettuce and cheddar cheese. Sprinkle some cherry candies on top and then serve your adorable cookies with a generous helping of whipped cream.
