How did it turn out, Margarette? 🙂
Yummy…i am going to try these soon….thank you for sharing 🙂
Wonderful. Let me know how you liked them when you try it out 🙂

Great recipe, Ahila. I am missing the music though. 🙂
Thanks, Aruna 🙂 Perhaps because I have been listening to the same set of playlists the last couple of months, with hour long instrumental music such as that of Hari Prasad Chaurasia, I have not thought of sharing them online as before 😉
How unique! How delicious it must be with the goodness of toasted coconut and jaggery! Wish I could taste it. Doesn’t the jaggery melt upon baking? Saving the recipe! Thanks for sharing it with us here at the Fiesta Friday!
Thanks, Suchitra. The mix of toasted coconut and jaggery in a cookie is delicious. And, no, the jaggery does not melt, just becomes a little moist during the baking.
Just checking if you received my comment.
I received both your comments, Suchitra. Didn’t check my blog this weekend until now. Thanks for co-hosting Fiesta Friday this week! 🙂
It sounds delicious! Thank you for sharing it with us! 🙂
Quick, easy, and delicious! The perfect cookie in my book!
Thank you, Julie.
