Nothing can beat the rich mouth-feel and chewy delightfulness of Crispy Coconut Cookies.

The appealing aroma of baked coconut and melted butter that emanates from the oven will draw you to bite into a cookie as soon as it is out of the oven, but do control the urge and wait till it cools down, as the cookies will turn crisp only on cooling.

These cookies are sure to be a family favourite and a perfect gift to make and give for festive occasions like Diwali , Christmas and Raksha - Bandhan .
