Lemon Coconut Cookies

Ingredients...
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 lemon, zest & juice
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups flour
2/3 cup shredded coconut
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions...
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar, until light and fluffy. 
Mix in lemon juice, zest, egg and vanilla. In a small bowl, combine flour, 
coconut, baking soda, and salt. Add in the flour mixture gradually, 
until all is combined. 

Chill the dough for a few hours, or overnight.

Preheat oven to 350° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 

Using a food processor, pulse together 1/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup coconut. 
Pour into a small, shallow bowl. Form the dough into 1 1/2 inch balls and 
coat with the sugar/coconut. Space the cookies out on the cookie sheet 
and bake for approximately 10 minutes. Allow cookies to cool and enjoy!
