My kitchen counter is covered with these crispy crowd-pleasers at Christmastime. I make them for friends and family. I also add them to care packages our church delivers to area senior citizens.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup finely chopped almonds
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add flour; mix just until combined. Stir in coconut, sesame seeds and almonds. Chill for 15 minutes.
2. Divide dough in half. Shape each portion into a 2-in.-diameter roll. Wrap each roll in waxed paper, twisting ends to seal. Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
3. Remove waxed paper. Cut dough into 1/4-in. slices; place on ungreased baking sheets.
4. Bake at 300° for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely. Yield: about 3-1/2 dozen.
