Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 c Butter
1/2 c Brown sugar
1 ts Vanilla
1/8 ts Salt
1 c Unsweetened shredded coconut
2 c White flour
Cream together very well butter and brown sugar. Add vanilla, salt,
coconut, and flour. Work the mixture into a dough with your fingers.
Divide it in quarters and form each into a roll about 1" or more in
diameter. Wrap each roll in wax paper and chill until firm. Preheat
the oven to 350°F. Cut the rolls into rounds, about 1/4" thick.
Optional:
Press halves of nuts or pieces of coconut into the top of each
cookie. This is easier if you have a ring of plastic or metal
(1-1/2" diameter) to contain the dough. Press some dough against the
nut to keep it in place later.
Place the rounds on ungreased baking sheets. Leave room for them to
spread out as they bake. Bake 15 minutes or until lightly brown and
done.
