Coconut Crème Brulee Cookies

The best part of any crème brulee is the contrast in textures, from the crystalized sugar top to the silky custard filling. These cookies capture each of these delightful textures, and throw in a fun twist — coconut notes to highlight the traditional vanilla flavor. The cookie is filled with a creamy, coconut-laced icing and has a crackly, crunchy exterior thanks to Sparkling Sugar.
