These things are divinely good - a little like melting moments cookies - there is a sneaky dollop of passionfruit curd hiding inside the centre, and a creamy coconut frosting holds the two cookie halves together. These would be great to give as a little Christmas gift, or share at a high tea.Â

Instructions
TO MAKE THE COOKIES:
- Process everything in a food processor till well combined.
- If the mixture is a little too sticky to work with, set in the fridge for a little while so it firms up.
- Spoon a tablespoon of mixture onto a teflex sheet and flatten into a cookie shape, repeat till you’ve used up the mixture.
- Dehydrate at 145ËšF for a couple of hours, then turn the temperature down to 115Ëš and continue to dehydrate till dry (at least a day).
- Flip the cookies half way through this process.
TO MAKE THE PASSIONFRUIT CURD:
- Gently melt the coconut butter over a bowl of hot water till it has liquefied
- Whisk in the rest of the ingredients, let cool a little
- Spoon into a plastic zip lock bag or piping bag and set aside
TO MAKE THE COCONUT FROSTING:
- Gently melt the coconut butter over a bowl of hot water till it has liquefied.
- Whisk in the rest of the ingredients, let set a little in the fridge, keep an eye on it so it doesn’t turn rock hard.
- Transfer into a zip lock plastic bag or piping bag ready for use.
TO ASSEMBLE:
- Pair the cookie halves together making sure they are of equal size.
- Pipe the coconut frosting around the outer edge of the flat side of one of the halves.
- Pipe a small dollop of passionfruit curd into the centre.
- Place the second cookie half over the top and repeat till finished.
- These are best enjoyed right away or else stored in an airtight container – just be aware that in hot weather the coconut frosting may be prone to melting.
Notes
Yes - you can totally put these cookies in the oven on low to speed up the process - they'll be yummy but they will no longer be raw!

Hi - no it isn't but it tastes great and is convenient, but you can always sub it out for homemade nut milk, I love Artisana brand for the butter 🙂
Lauren Glucina
Probably for the cookies if you soften it before you mix it in, but if you can't get coconut nectar I think the next best tasting alternative would be 100% pure maple syrup 🙂
Sarah Tamburrini
Hey Lauren- would rice malt work for the nectar? X
Adeline Widdison
hi lauren, this recipe sounds yum! can you tell me which brand you prefer for purchasing coconut products, as i am unsure which ones are manufactured using processes ensuring the products are still raw? i wouldn't have thought coco quench was raw? thanks!
