This situation happened to me once. That depends on the kind of flour or on the brand of the butter {even the temperature of the butter can change this amount}. First, put all the dry ingrendients {flour, cornstarch, shredded coconut and sugar}. Mix them. After, add the butter, little by little, until a dough is formed. This dough is a little bit humid, but pliable enough to allow you to make small balls.

If you see that dough is not pliable, take it to the fridge for 10 minutes. It will be good to work.

I’m updating this recipe and telling what to do under this situation. Thanks for reporting!

If you want to assure things, measure 200 grams of butter at room temperature. It is the same amount as a cup, but, since I’m cooking in Brazil, maybe those measures would be different. Sorry about that!

If you’re making these cookies again, let me know if it is ok!

I made these this morning and they are a mess! They look nothing like the photo. They spread out flat and covered the entire cookie sheet. After cooling I can’t even pick one up to eat it without it crumbling to pieces. When I made them I wondered how they could hold together with a cup of butter, but decided to give them a try anyway. Any suggestions?
