Flatten with a flat measuring cup.Freeze cookies until hardened (30-60 minutes).

Melt gently if your oil is too firm.Spread around ½ teaspoon icing onto each cookie.When the icing starts to firm up, garnish with coconut shreds for "sprinkles." Chill cookies to harden icing completely.Store in fridge for up to 1 week or freezer for up to3 months.
