Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Coconut Date Cookies.
Step 1
Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat and melting the butter until it’s beautifully golden.
Step 2
Next, add in the chopped dates, white sugar, and beaten eggs, stirring the mixture gently.
Step 3
Keep cooking and stirring for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until it thickens up nicely and starts to pull away from the sides of the skillet, creating a delightful aroma that fills your kitchen.
Step 4
Once it reaches that perfect consistency, take the skillet off the heat and fold in the crispy rice cereal and chopped pecans, making sure everything is well combined for a delicious crunch in every bite.
Step 5
Now, grab a shallow bowl and fill it with flaked coconut.
Step 6
Using a teaspoon, scoop out spoonfuls of the cookie dough and drop them into the coconut, rolling them around to coat and form small, delightful balls.
Step 7
Finally, let your cookies cool for about 20 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Step 8
Enjoy the sweet, nutty goodness of your homemade treats!.
