Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- In large bowl, stir cookie mix, 1/2 cup of the coconut, the pecans, butter and egg until stiff dough forms.
- On floured surface, roll half of dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with 2-inch round or fluted cookie cutter. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. Repeat with remaining half of dough.
- Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until set. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets. Cool completely.
- To make each sandwich cookie, spread about 2 teaspoons dulce de leche on bottom of 1 cookie. Top with second cookie, bottom side down; gently press cookies together so some of filling seeps out around edges. Roll edges in remaining 1/2 cup coconut. Place cookies on cooling rack.
- Sprinkle tops of sandwich cookies with powdered sugar. Store between sheets of waxed paper in tightly covered container.

[email protected]I had a bit of trouble getting the cookies to stay together, but I think that was because I didn't chill the dough long enough. I'll definitely chill it longer next time.
