Favorite Potato Recipe or Potato Hack: Potato Flake Coconut Cookies
Dehydrated potato flakes star in this recipe Dolores has been making for years!
“The cookies are almost like a sugar cookie (except they have the coconut flavor). They are soft and the kids love them! When you say coconut, most students are not excited about the texture, but these cookies only call for coconut flavoring and potato flakes that look like coconut. No coloring is needed because the coconut flavoring turns them a pretty golden yellow. Our first try with these was several years ago, when we had commodity “bonus” potato flakes. We had potato flakes everywhere!!! We tried this recipe and it was a hit from that day forward. We utilized our potato flakes and had another winning recipe for our students.”
