      Oh Kris, I am sad to say that I have more and more trouble trying to post on your blog. But wanted to say that I am very sorry to hear about your son’s accident and I hope that he mends soon. Sometimes baking really is the best distraction from life’s little trials.

    I didn’t actually have any, but those who did eat them really liked them…

    I added cranberries to it….the tartness from the fruit gave the friands a refreshing taste. Great for parties and children will love these coconut friands as much as the adults. Love it and I will bake this again for sure :)

    I ran out of dried shredded coconut so I used macapuno, a gelatinous variety of “mutant” coconut from the Philippines. And I topped my friands with red-fleshed dragon fruit! So easy and delicious :)

    I do not like coconut at all. No one in my house does. I cheated. My sister made them, and she’s guest blogging for me today. Her family loved them.

    I honestly didn’t know what to expect from this recipe and I ended up loving it. Another one to file under the ever growing ”I never would have made this if it wasn’t for FFwD” category…

    I feel like you either love coconut or hate it and apparently, Pierce loves it, (although, I did not capture the moment of him taking another and yet another to eat as I was taking pictures!)

    Made it in just under the wire!

    Maybe I was too busy eating these instead of writing about them.

    Happy Saturday to all and I am always so happy when I participate. Had some fun with these – adding lime zest and chocolate. They seemed a bit too buttery to me but the bittersweet chocolate and dusting of add’l zest on top helped. What doesn’t taste even better with chocolate? I can see why Dorie suggests adding fresh fruit. It would be a nice counterpoint. But my 17 year old that loves coconut gave them a huge thumbs up!
