This is one of the most requested cookie recipes at the inn. These babies taste like a delicate macaroon.

  • 1 teaspoons pure almond extract
  • 2 teaspoons fresh squeezed orange juice

  • ¼ teaspoons salt
  • 4  cups flaked coconut

  2. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Gradually add to the creamed mixture on low speed. Stir in 3 cups of the coconut. Cover and chill until batter is firm enough to be scooped.
