Oatmeal Coconut Cookies

I was looking at recipes at onehotstove when some link there took me to this site: egglesscooking. There are lot of wonderful eggless recipes here that I want to try. I started off with the oatmeal coconut cookies. The author suggests in her notes to the recipe that the cookies were too sweet and offers some suggestions to reduce the sweetness. I tried the recipe with the modifications suggested. Here is how I made it.

Oatmeal Coconut Cookies (makes 12 cookies)

All purpose flour, 1/2 cup
Baking soda,1/4 tsp
Salt, pinch
Dessicated coconut (unsweetened), 1/2 cup
Quick cooking oats, 1/2 cup
Butter, 1/4 cup
Granulated sugar, 1/4 cup
Honey, 1 tbsp
Milk (if required), few tbsps

Preheat oven to 350F. Melt the butter with the sugar and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat. Keep aside to cool. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in the coconut and oats. Pour the cooled melted butter mixture to the dry ingredients and mix well. I found that the cookie dough was not moist enough so I added little milk. Instead maybe you could add more honey or melted butter. Once you get the right consistency, roll into balls and place on a cookie sheet 1 inch apart. Flatten the balls slightly. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
