BTW, I have cooked with desiccated unsweetened coconut meat with great results! You can buy unsweetened flakes and make it yourself, as well. I find that some recipes do better if you let them soak a bit before baking. I use unsweetened coconut flakes in homemade ice cream sometimes, too, and it comes out best if you soak it for an hour or more first. I usually soak mine in Almond Breeze, but plain water would work as well.


Kiki - I made these w/coconut flour instead of almond flour and they were wonderful! Came out much "cakier" - I don't care for the "greasiness and grittiness" of almond flour, so I often sub with coconut. Great recipe to adapt, for sure.
