Chilled Coconut Sour Cream Cookies

Hi there! This week’s recipe is super delicious chilled coconut sour cream cookies. I could not stop eating these cookies! 

They were so soft. They were really similar to some cookies a local soda shop sells here in Arizona. I tried the cookies without the cream cheese frosting and it felt like something was missing. The cream cheese frosting adds a little bit of sweetness to the cookie. 

The most important part is to chill the cookies! I don’t know why the cool temperature makes the cookie taste so much better but it does. Another quick and easy recipe to add to the list of my favorites.
