From Dianne Bignell

Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded coconut
  • 1 cup finely chopped dates
  • 1 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 beaten eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Preparation

Step 1

Combine ingredients in order given. Let stand at least 10-12 minutes. Drop onto parchment lined (or well greased and floured) baking sheet. Bake at 350F for 12-14 minutes. Using a 1 1/2 inch cookie scoop makes 32-34 cookies. Recipe can easily be halved for a smaller batch.
Note: Cookies will be very soft and moist when removed from the oven, firming as they cool.
