• Cooking Time: 18 to 20 minutes
• Servings: 28 cookies
• Preparation Time: about 15 minutes
• 1 1/3 cup flaked coconut
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
• 1/8 tsp. salt
• 2 egg whites
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract*

Preheat oven to 325 F.

In a small bowl, combine the coconut, sugar, flour and salt; stir in egg whites and vanilla; mix well.

Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheets (I had to use only one); bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown; remove to wire racks to cool.

I found the recipe for these sweet and delightful little cookies in the Taste Of Home Cookbook, and it was submitted by Penny Ann Gilliman of Shawano, Wisconsin. *Instead of using vanilla extract, I used almond because it was all I had, but they still turned out very good!
