Sesame, coconut, and pecans, what's not to like? I got this from Martha's Kitchen. Ingredients:
1 lb unsalted butter, room temperature |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
3 cups white flour |
2 cups shredded sweetened coconut |
1 cup sesame seeds |
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300°F. 2. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. 3. In a bowl beat butter and sugar on medium speed with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. 4. Add flour 1/2 cup at a time, mixing on low speed until well combined. 5. With a wooden spoon or your hands, stir in coconut, sesame seeds, and pecans. 6. Divide dough into thirds. 7. Roll into logs about 1 1/2-inches in diameter. 8. Wrap each log in plastic, and refrigerate until very firm, about 2 hours. 9. Using a sharp knife, cut logs into 1/4-inch thick slices. 10. Transfer to prepared baking sheets, about 1 1/2 inches apart. 11. Bake until edges are golden, 20-30 minutes. 12. Transfer sheets to a wire rack to cool. 13. Cool for 5 minutes on baking sheets before transferring cookies to wire racks to cool completely. |
