When we think of cookies, we might be lazy to make it yourself at home. Likewise with me who thinks so. But that doesn't happen to me anymore when I only had a low budget.
Now I am used to saving on food expenses. Making your own meals at home is both happiness and saves money.
So I always learn to make meals on a low budget that I adjust to my home supplies. I often modify the recipes that I get on the internet to be lower budget but the results are still delicious. Even I did not expect the results to be delicious beyond my expectations.
Brown Sugar Cookies
One of my low budget cookie recipes is brown sugar cookies. The main ingredients of these cookies are coconut cream, all-purpose flour, and brown sugar.
About coconut cream, you can replace it with coconut milk but with a creamy and thick texture or you can use frozen coconut oil. And related to the brown sugar in this recipe, you can replace brown sugar with coconut sugar.
