Categories: Cookies, Fruits
Yield: 42 servings

1 c Sweetened shredded coconut
1 c Sugar
3/4 c Cold butter; diced
2 1/4 c A-P flour
2 lg Eggs; lightly beaten
1/2 ts Vanilla extract

MMMMM---------------------------GLAZE--------------------------------
3/4 c Confectioners' sugar
1 tb Water
1/2 ts Vanilla extract
Coarse white sugar; opt
1/2 c Seedless raspberry jam

Place coconut and sugar in a food processor; cover and
process until coconut is coarsely chopped. In a large
bowl, cut butter into flour until crumbly. Stir in
coconut mixture. Stir in eggs and vanilla.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8"
thickness. Cut with a 2 1/2" heart-shaped cookie cutter
dipped in flour. Using a 1" heart-shaped cookie cutter,
cut out the center of half of the cookies. Reroll small
cutouts if desired.

Place solid and cutout cookies 1" apart on greased
baking sheets. Bake @ 375ºF/190ºC for 7-9 minutes or
until edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks.

In a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, water
and vanilla; brush over warm cookies with cutout
centers. Immediately sprinkle with coarse white sugar if
desired. Spread 1/2 teaspoon of jam over the bottom of
each solid cookie; place cookies with cutout centers
over jam.
