They are also ideal as Christmas cookies. You can package the coconut cookies nicely and give them as gifts to your loved ones. Since they do not contain animal products, they are perfect for vegans too.
Delicious with or without chocolate
Instead of dark chocolate, vegan milk or white chocolate will also work to coat the coconut cookies. You can dip not only a part of each cookie, but the whole cookie in the chocolate briefly. Or just lightly drizzle the cookies with chocolate if you like less chocolate flavor.
