Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil review





 Tropical Traditions
                                                             



I am a fan of Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil. There are so many  nutritional and  health benefits from this product.  I have found that using it for baking makes  cakes and cookies so moist,  it is a great way to consume Virgin Coconut Oil . I also use the Coconut Oil and as facial moisturizer and it works  great as a makeup remover.  I am adding below my cookie recipe using Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil and links to lots of good info. about this  product and info on how to win a jar of  Tropical Traditions gold label Virgin Coconut Oil for yourself.

This is one my recipes I submitted to Tropical Traditions...Double Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies
Servings: 48 cookies
Preparation Time: 10 min.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Melt the butter and coconut oil and put in a large mixing bowl. Whisk the sugars, eggs and vanilla with the butter and coconut oil until combined. Stir in the flour with a wooden spoon just until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and coconut.
Wet your hands and roll the dough into balls and place on a greased baking sheet, make sure they have room to spread.
Bake cookies until just light golden brown on the bottom for a nice soft cookie, or a little longer if you like a more crispy cookie. Transfer cookies to a plate for cooling. Makes about 48 cookies
