Crunchy Orange Basil Cookies Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup flaked coconut

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon almond extract

1/4 teaspoon lemon zest

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup orange juice

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup hot water

1 cup white sugar

1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon lemon zest

1/4 teaspoon orange zest

1/2 cup chopped pecans

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In a medium bowl, sift together the coconut, brown sugar, orange juice, flour, and hot water. Mix well. Separate cookies into four pieces. Roll into 1 inch balls and roll in chopped pecans.

Place cookies on cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until slightly brown. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
