TWD: Coconut Butter Thins

Jayne from Barefoot Kitchen Witch (who has a great blog and always has such descriptive and marvelous pictures!!) picked this weeks TWD recipe, Coconut Butter Thins. I am a big shortbread and butter cookie fan – remember that blue tin with the stacks of cookies in the white paper? The ones shaped like pretzels with the coarse sugar on the top were my favorite…my gosh, I could wipe out a whole tin of those. YUM. But I digress.

These were super easy to pull together – I found the dough fit perfectly in my bag, rolled out like a charm, and slicing was a breeze. And they smelled heavenly! Somehow, though, mine sorta spread a bit…and some – in no particular pattern at all – browned up more than others even though they were all the exact same size and shape to start! Go figure.

They also seemed quite crumbly, and I was picturing them being delish all crumbled up on top of some ice cream. In any case, I can’t comment…sigh…on how they tasted, as they are boxed up and on their way to my neighbor’s.
