Very good! I added a tablespoon of cocoa just to darken the dough. i also have used the dough to wrap around chocolate kisses, and roll in crushed peanuts. Also, very good!

Would not make this again.
This was a super easy recipe and I was really excited because I love coconut, but I was really dissapointed. They dont have much flavor. They are kind of mushy too. Sorry, I wouldnt make them again unless I add something else for more flavor
