Servings: persons

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, cut into pieces
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
3/4 cup flaked coconut

1
Preheat the oven to 350F/180u00b0C.
2
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add butter, and cut in using a pastry blender or a fork until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
4
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, and pour in the wet ingredients. Add coconut, and mix just enough to blend.
5
Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets, 2-3 inches apart as they really spread.
6
Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. Keep an eye on these as they will burn if left in too long.
7
Transfer to a cooking rack immediately or else they will stick to the pan.
8
Cookies are soft with crunch edges at first but get completely crunchy upon cooling.
