1 lb unsalted butter, room temperature |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
3 cups all-purpose flour |
2 cups shredded sweetened coconut |

5. Remove bowl from mixer; 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.

13. Cool for 5 minutes on baking sheets before transferring cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
