These were pretty good for homemade crackers. I used all ww flour and maple syrup in place of the molasses (I couldn't really taste it though). I had a hard time getting them all the same thickness and so some came out crispy and some were chewy. I had fun making them with my 2 year old son and nephew, but I don't think it was worth the effort to make them again. Thanks for a good recipe, though, and a new experience!

These were SO awesome. Really worth the effort. I love the flavor of coconut and these really satisfied my coconut fix. I will be including these on my holiday cookie trays this year, perhaps dipped in chocolate.
