Great tasting and very easy to make. Warning: when toasting your coconut check it frequently. I found out the hard way that coconut burns very quickly! Read More

I wasn't too crazy about these maybe I did something wrong. I thought they browned too quickly and if I reduced the baking time they weren't quite done. Just not what I was looking for. Read More

These had excellent flavor but they got a bit too crispy. I cooked them just until a bit golden brown - next time I will take them out earlier. Read More

good flavor but found out that foil needs to be coated with cooking spray to come off easily. Read More
