Ummmm. Sugar cookie with coconut?

I don't know what it's properly called. But Mum got a box of spiggits for Christmas from one of the places she house-sits. Luckily, they gauged her tastes correctly at Council Estate, so it wasn't a box of Duchy Originals or anything. There was a yummy coconutty one, that in our box had a chocolate base. I imagine Clod's was the same - sans chocolate.

I think ours might have been M&S actually.
Not typical British fare and not available within the Secret Santa budget

Added: T'internet tells me that it is a Coconut Cookie. No surprise there then!

maybe what we call macaroons??

Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
3 cups shredded coconut
1 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Preparation:
Generously grease baking sheets. Combine all ingredients; stir until well blended. Drop by teaspoonfuls, 1 inch apart, on prepared baking sheets. Press down with the back of spoon to even thickness. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes, or until macaroons are golden brown. Cool 5 minutes; remove from baking sheet.
