Let the Christmas cheer begin! Time to enjoy the company of your loved ones, lots of sugar and cozy days in your home. Merry Christmas to all of you! Made these yummy coconut cookies. Very quick and easy to make, yet very delicious. The appealing aroma of baked coconut and melted butter that emanates from the oven will draw you to bite into a cookie as soon as it is out of the oven, but do control the urge and wait till it cools down, as cookies will turn crisp only on cooling.
