Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut

  5. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Press gently to shape them into cookie forms.
  6. Place the cookies in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set and firm up.
  7. Enjoy these no-bake cookies as a sweet snack or dessert!
