Recipe(tried): Besitos de Coco (Coconut Kisses)

Desserts - Cookies, Brownies, Bars
COCONUT KISSES (BESITOS DE COCO)

1 large dry coconut
1 cup brown sugar
4 egg yolks
8 tablespoons flour
4 teaspoons butter, softened
1 lemon peel shaving
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt

Be sure to take the butter out of the refrigerator with plenty of time, so it will be soft when you start your recipe.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Thoroughly grease a glass baking pan.

Crack open the coconut and take out the pulp but DO NOT take off the brown peeling on the pulp. Wash the coconut pulp and grate it. Measure 3 full cups of grated coconut by pressing the coconut down in the measuring cup.

Combine the coconut with the brown sugar, egg yolks, flour, butter, lemon peel, vanilla and salt. Mix well.

Make little coconut balls with the mixture and set aside.

Place the coconut balls in the prepared pan.

Bake the coconut kisses for approximately 30-40 minutes or until golden brown.
