Hedgehog Cookies

I had one of these cute little cookies in a small coffee shop in Whitefield NH.. They're a burst of flavor in every bite and are the easiest cookie I've ever made.  You can substitute the chopped dates with raisins and they are just as good. They are also gluten free

Ingredients

  • 1 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped dates       
  • 1 cup flaked coconut, divided
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 lightly beaten egg
Directions
  1. In a bowl, combine the walnuts, dates and brown sugar. Add 1/2 cup coconut and the egg; mix well. Shape into 1-in. balls; roll in remaining coconut. Place on greased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-13 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool.
