052812 Coconut Cream-filled Macaroons

I couldn't readily find any unsweetened coconut and so I used the sweetened coconut flakes. The cookies weren't all that sweet to me but to some, they needed a good cup of java to wash it down. The cookies took a bit of time to assemble - after I flattened each one, I found myself shaping each cookie so that there weren't any loose flakes poking out on the sides. Not a bad recipe

but one really needs to love coconut to enjoy these cookies!
