  1. Substituting coconut extract for some of the vanilla might boost the coconut flavor too.
     
  2. Maybe I am just too much of an amateur baker and I do fault myself for not reading the recipe through before starting. I checked the ingredients list and then stared following directions. When it says to combine the dry ingredients I added the sugars in with the salt, soda and flour. Then soon came upon the instructions to cream the butter and sugars together. I had to throw out all the sugars and flour, soda and salt and start over. I was kind of bummed, but fortunately had enough ingredients. The only other thing I might add is that the cookies are very delicious, but it is difficult to discern the coconut flavor. This report from all my family members who have tried them. The almond And chocolate proportion is just right. Next time I will add a cup or two more coconut. And oh, I choose to toast the almonds at 325 for 7 or 8 minutes, letting them cool before adding them into the mixture. They were really good! A wonderful recipe, I will definitely make these again.
