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.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On a baking sheet, toast pecans until fragrant, about 6 minutes. Let cool completely; finely chop.
- With an electric mixer, cream butter and 1/3 cup sugar until light, about 1 minute. Beat in vanilla, salt, and flour, scraping down sides of bowl, just until dough comes together. Fold in pecans.
- Separate dough into 12 pieces; squeeze dough to shape into balls. Roll in sugar. Place, 3 inches apart, on a baking sheet. Gently flatten with the bottom of a glass (reshape sides if necessary). Sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake until golden brown, rotating sheet halfway through, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with more sugar. Cool cookies on a wire rack.
Tips:
- Use fresh shredded coconut. Fresh shredded coconut has a much better flavor and texture than dried coconut. You can find fresh shredded coconut in the produce section of most grocery stores.
- Toast the pecans. Toasting the pecans brings out their flavor and makes them more crunchy. To toast pecans, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-7 minutes, or until they are fragrant and golden brown.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. The cookies should be slightly golden brown around the edges and still soft in the center. If you overbake the cookies, they will be dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
These coconut pecan cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy with a sweet and nutty flavor. The cookies are also gluten-free and dairy-free, making them a great option for people with food allergies. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give these coconut pecan cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
