COCONUT-PECAN COOKIES
This is a buttery coconut-pecan cookie. The crunch comes from the pecans and coconut, but the cookie itself is chewy. I do not add salt to this recipe, as I think with salted butter enough salt is present.

COCONUT JOYS
This originally comes from one of the Southern Living Christmas Family Favorites. I like mine a lot smaller than in the original recipe and I use a lot more chocolate! I make these almost every Christmas I make cookies to give out!

COCONUT (ALMOND) JOYS
These do not look like Mounds or Almond Joys, but the taste is very similar. I make these every Christmas along with my cookies and they are very easy and quick to make. They are very pretty on a tray when placed in decorated mini muffin liners.
