Preparation
  • Combine all ingredients except for the last portion of coconut, egg yolk, cream, and pecan halves.

  • Roll each log in coconut to coat.
  • Freeze the logs.
  • When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees (175 C.).

  • Press a pecan half into the cookie.
  • Bake approximately 15 minutes until golden brown at edges.
Comments
Cookie dough can be made, rolled in coconut, wrapped in plastic wrap and frozen way ahead of Christmas. That way you can have fresh baked cookies anytime in about a half an hour. Leave off the pecan halves if you're out or just not into nuts and these cookies are just as good!
