I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these cookies were surprisingly good. The raspberry flavor really shines through.

Overall, these cookies were good, but not great. I'll probably try a different recipe next time.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to spread out in the oven. They ended up being more like balls than cookies.
