Finally cracked using infused coconut oil, and it tastes good.....

Iv never had any luck making tasty, or even bearable treats using avb coconut oil...
Or even fresh herb oil, iv always hated the coconut taste more than anything...

But after going all paleo and having no sugar for a month, i decided i was gonna figure out some cookies if it cost me a fortune in overpriced organic ingredients....

So after much trial and error I managed to produce really tasty, infused cookies....

Not the best pic, iv since made them prettier...

So to achieve this I used...

Half cup of coconut flour...
Quarter cup of coconut sugar..
Quarter cup of coconut oil (infused or not)...
Quarter cup of coconut butter...
2 tbls good local organic honey....
3 egg yolks....
Cinnamon and ground ginger...
Organic dark chocolate (natural cane sugar type)...

The coconut butter is my new favourite thing, it has no essenceof coconut to it.. so it's great to replace nomal butter for my paleo diet...
All in moderation of course...
I think it would be great for infusing into, but I'm looking into that now, I see no issues yet..

Anyway mix all that together one thing at a time, and you end up with a nice cookie dough...

Bake for 15 mins (dependant on cookie size) And away you go....

This is a rare treat for me.....

@kellya86, I'm not a fan of coconut oil taste either. I found a product that has no flavor and use it for all my baking --

Yeah that looks suspiciously like what I'm buying, called butter...
With most of the ingredients deriving from the coconut, its hard for it not to have a tinge of it in there.. but is say mine don't taste of it....

Next time I make a batch of infused oil, I will try your recipe. I've been trying to avoid wheat, and this looks like it would work. They look delicious!
