These cookies were a waste of time and ingredients. They were dry, bland, and flavorless.

Overall, I thought these cookies were good, but not great. I probably won't make them again.

I think these cookies would be even better if they were made with fresh coconut instead of shredded coconut.

I found that the cookies were a little dry. I think I'll add a little more butter next time.
