These are great cookies. I saw the lemon cake mix with coconut, and knew it was for me.....and I am HAPPY! I just made normal sized cookies, and rolled them in the coconut, but didnt put them together for a snowman. THe are very sweet and have a crunchy, but soft texture. I will definetely make these again. THanks for sharing!

I live in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina, and love it. Having been a writer, editor and graphic designer for years, I am now pursuing my great love - helping people write their life stories - as a personal historian. My family's heritage is Dutch (parents, siblings and myself born and raised in the Grand Rapids/ Holland/ Zeeland areas of Michigan), so I am always looking for recipes, as well as other ideas, related to the Netherlands.
