Ingredients
-
1/2 cup butter (i use real butter, but i'm sure it would work fine with margarine- might not be QUITE as tasty, thou)
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/4 cups pecans
1 3/4 cups sweetened flaked coconut
1 teaspoon baking soda
Preparation
-
Cream butter and sugar together in large bowl. Mix in egg and vanilla.
Mix in 1 cup coconut, saving the other 3/4 cup for later use.
Combine flour, pecans, and baking soda in small bowl. Mix into coconut mixture.
Once well mixed, sprinkle remaining 3/4 cup coconut on work surface.
Divide dough into 3 parts and form into rolls, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
Roll dough in coconut until coated.
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 1 hour. (dough can be frozen up to 6 weeks).
Cut rolls into 1/4 inch thick slices and place on ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes. My oven takes 15.
Cool and enjoy!
