Stir in coconut (dough will be sticky)., Set aside 2/3 cup dough; roll remaining dough into 1-in. balls. Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make a 3/8-in.-deep indentation in the center of each ball. Fill each with 1/2 teaspoon jam. Cover jam with a teaspoonful of reserved dough; seal and reshape into a ball. Repeat., Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
