Karo Lace Cookies image

My Mother used to make these every year during the Christmas Season. You can actually put a hook in them and decorate your tree with these cookies. They're more like a yummy coconut candy than a cookie to me.

Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup(s) all-purpose flour (sifted)
1 cup(s) flaked coconut
1 stick(s) margarine or butter
1/2 cup(s) light brown sugar
1/2 cup(s) light corn syrup
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla

Steps:

  • In a separate bowl, mix together flour and coconut.
  • In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, melt margarine. Add brown sugar and Karo syrup, and stir until it comes to a low boil and all ingredients have blended together.
  • Remove saucepan from heat and gradually stir in flour/coconut mixture. Then add the vanilla.
  • Line your cookie sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Drop cookie mixture, by scant teaspoonfuls, about three inches apart on the foil, or paper, lining your pan.
  • Bake in a 350 degree oven for @ 10-12". (I like for mine to get lightly browned around the edges, which takes a couple of minutes longer.)
  • Remove from oven, and place on rack to cool. These take several minutes - about 5", or so - to cool enough to touch. Peel off of the foil or paper & bake more!
  • Warning: These ARE addictive, lol!
