cup unsalted butter, softened

cup granulated sugar

large egg

teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cups all-purpose flour

teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

cup green colored coconut flakes (for grass)

cup assorted Easter candies (chocolate eggs, jelly beans, etc.)

Optional: Edible glitter for decoration

Shape the Cookie Cups: Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. Place each ball into a greased or lined muffin tin, pressing down in the center to create a hollow cup shape. Ensure the dough reaches up the sides of the cups.

Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Prepare Coconut Grass: While the cookie cups are cooling, take the green coconut flakes and place them in a bowl. Add a few drops of green food coloring and mix until evenly dyed. Set aside.

Assemble the Basket: Once the sugar cookie cups are completely cool, fill each cup with a layer of the dyed coconut flakes to mimic grass.

Add Candies: On top of the coconut grass, add an assortment of Easter candies. You can mix in chocolate eggs, jelly beans, or any other festive treats.
