Recipe Comments and Reviews Sort by: Reviews General Comments View All » Rating One of, if not the BEST chewy cookie recipes out there. They are a crowd pleaser and keep well in our cookie jar ((but hardly last 2 days!)). Super soft/chewy and the coconut flavor is spot on without any overbearing 'tropical' notes that some people might not like. We occasionally add in mini choc chips and chopped almonds. A must try!! Thank you Land'OLakes for such a wonderful recipe. Posted December 18, 2016 by SuzannaB Rating I love it Posted August 01, 2013 by ha Rating I made this recipe several years ago at Christmas time and loved it. They are moist, chewy and full of coconut flavor. They are now a regualr cookie I bake at Christmas and other times of the year. Posted December 31, 2010 by Mary Rating The very first time I made this recipe it became a family favorite... my teen daughter, who is not even a huge fan of sweets, said, as she ate one warm from the oven, "they are like a cloud of warm coconutty goodness." Posted November 21, 2010 by Laurie Rating I reduced the sugars to 1/2 cup each. I loved it! Will definitely make again. Posted February 01, 2010 by Zayda Rating This recipe is wonderful. The cookie is soft and chewy and the flavor is yummy. I omitted the candied cherries, as I am not a fan of them. Will definitely make this recipe again. Posted August 20, 2009 by Kathy Rating I've made these cookies for Christmas two years in a row. They are delicious and travel well.
