Ingredients

  • 2 cups walnuts
  • 1 cup dates pitted and chopped
  • 2-3 cups flaked coconut
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Grind nuts and dates in food processor or blender. Grind until you achieve a fine meal consistency. The released oils will help the cookie batter hold together.
  • Mix 1-½ cup coconut and remaining ingredients.
  • Scoop up in tablespoons (if you have a kitchen scale it helps to weigh each scoop in order to get evenly-sized cookies. I weighed mine at 1 ounce each). Shape into balls and roll in coconut. You may need to add coconut.
  • Bake on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Cookies are done with the coconut has an amber color, about 10-15 minutes.
    Enjoy!
