COCONUT COOKIES Plus, This is made with a mix, and only makes about a dozen cookies but this is a really tasty cookie. Pecans and coconut add to the flavor of these cookies. Then there is the glaze, Its a vanilla Glaze, I have also added a little rum flavoring to these and OH MY GOODNESS, it really adds something to this...
