Coconut and Pecan Cookies (Eggless) is one of my favourite cookie in my Bake Diary. I do love Pecans among all nuts and personally feel the baked pecans add an additional flavour to the cookies. I have tried this cookie with Desicated coconut too, but did not get the baked fresh coconut aroma. Every bite of the cookie taste the crunchy outside, soft on the inside and totally coconutty . I bet all coconut lovers would love to try this recipe.
Health freaks can opt for whole wheat flour and sweetner of their choice. I would recommend to try this recipe first and experiment with other flours and sweetners of their choice. Do try and let me know your feedback in comments. Lets learn how to make this yummy cookie without any delay.

If the cookie mixture is crumbly , sprinkle milk little at a time until it forms a perfect cookie dough. Shape the cookie dough into a log shape and roll in remaining coconut (¼ cup) . Wrap in a cling film and refrigerate for 1 hour .
Unwrap the cookie dough , cut into desired slices. Place the slices on a ungreased baking tray and place a pecan in the centre.
Preheat oven to 180 ° celsius and bake it for 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool for 5 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely. Store it in an airtight container and serve with a cup of coffee or tea. I prefer eating the cookie while it is warm.

Notes
Use freshly shredded coconut. Can use any nuts like cashew nut or almond. I baked in MICROWAVE CONVECTION OVEN for 20 minutes. Every oven behaves differently and so have an eye for the first 15 minutes during baking .
