Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1.5 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg plus 2 large egg yolks, room temperature
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
  • 2.5 cups all -purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup glutinous rice flour (Mochiko)
  • 1 cup freeze -dried mangoes, pulverized into powder
  • 1/2 cup sweetened dried mango, finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons coconut cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Toast the glutinous rice flour in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly until it smells nutty and turns a pale golden brown; set aside to cool.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar on medium-high speed for 3 minutes until light and aerated.
  • Add the egg, egg yolks, and coconut extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully incorporated and smooth.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and kosher salt.
  • Divide the butter-sugar-egg mixture into two equal portions in separate bowls.
  • To the first bowl, add half of the flour mixture and the toasted glutinous rice flour; mix until a pale dough forms.
  • To the second bowl, add the remaining flour mixture and the pulverized freeze-dried mango powder; mix until a vibrant yellow dough forms.
  • Fold the finely diced dried mango pieces into the mango dough portion.
  • To assemble, take a small tablespoon of each dough (the rice dough and the mango dough) and gently roll them together to create a marbled sphere.
  • Place dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until the edges are just golden and the centers remain slightly soft.
  • Allow cookies to cool on the sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Whisk together the powdered sugar, coconut cream, and sea salt to form a thick glaze; drizzle over the cooled cookies before serving.
