Happy Mustache Day! November has drawn to an end, and December has successfully allowed men (and unfortunately, boys) of all shapes and sizes to grow mustaches. Ranging from Burt Reynolds to dirty Frenchman, these mustaches are everywhere. Aren’t us girls lucky? In honor of the cause, I hope all you boys have grown some glorious staches, and that you ladies are throwing on a fake one to celebrate. BTW, fake eyelash glue really helps secure those suckers to your face.
On another note, when did December get here?? I swear, November didn’t even happen. It’s only the first of December, and I’m already sick of Christmas music, gingerbread and commercials that think they’re being holiday witty (it’s been done, homies!). So, to get away from it all, I’ve been killin’ time by baking cookies. What up Friday evening. Once my belly is full on gooey, chocolate, coconut deliciousness, I’m going to throw on the dirty Frenchman and my red stripey dress and hit the town. Happy weekend!
DOUBLE CHOCO-COCONUT COOKIES:
Bake at 375 for about ten minutes
Makes about 15 cookies
Cream:
1/2 cup butter (room temp)
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/8 tsp salt
Add:
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 1/4 cup flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
Add:
3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Bring dough together, and roll into about one inch balls. Press each ball to about two inches, so that it resembles a small hockey puck. Press the dough into coconut flakes on a flat surface and place on the cookie sheet!

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake them babies up, and you’ve got a little hockey puck of heaven
