Swedish Angel Crisps image

This recipe came from my great grandmother's family who came from Sweden somewhere near the end of the last century. NOTE: You can also add 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa to this recipe. It makes the cookies taste like brownie cookies.

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I actually really enjoyed these cookies. The coconut flavor is subtle and the cookies are so light and airy.

These cookies were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the frosting was too sweet.
