The cookie is truly fantastic: a lemon cookie loaded with coconut, macadamias, pineapple, mango, and papaya. Mmmm...tasty! Enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 1/4 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 lb butter, at room temperature
3/4 c packed light brown sugar
1/4 c granulated sugar
1 pkg. (3.4 oz) jello lemon flavored instant pudding
2 (large) eggs
1 tsp lemon extract
1 c flaked coconut
1 c dried tropical fruit (pineapple, mango, papaya) chopped
1 c toasted macadamias, coarsely chopped
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Sift together first 3 ingredients into a large bowl. Set aside.
3. In a large mixer bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add instant pudding, mixing well. Add eggs and lemon extract, mixing until well blended. Scrape down sides of bowl as necessary. Slowly add flour, mixing well. Stir in coconut, dried fruit, and macadamias until well blended.
4. Using a standard ice cream scoop (2 oz), or rounded tablespoons, drop dough onto an un-greased baking sheet.
5. For 2 oz cookie, bake at 350 degrees for 16-18 minutes. For rounded tablespoon-size cookies, bake 12-14 minutes. After one minute, transfer from pan to wire rack to cool.
