I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and dense. They didn't look anything like the pictures.

I love the coconut flavor in these cookies. It's not too overpowering.

These cookies were a little dry for my taste. I think I'll add a little more butter next time.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The glaze helps to balance out the coconut flavor.
