Toasted Coconut Shortbread Cookies


Over the long weekend I had been bitten by the baking bug! Now, this is something quite out of the ordinary as I've always said "I'm not a baker" but something came over me and all I wanted to do was whip up delights with flour, sugar and butter! 
Since I'm not a "super sweet" person (palate, not personality) I decided that shortbread cookies were the way to go! I wanted the buttery taste with a hint of salt. I also wanted to figure out a way to include my latest addiction, Dang Toasted Coconut Chips. So, here's what I came up with. Oh, and did I mention the cookies themselves are made with only 4 ingredients! 

Ingredients
2 1/4 c flour, sifted
1 stick of butter, room temp
1/2 white sugar
1 tsp sea salt
