    Oh gosh, I'm in trouble. These are SO good. I used sweetened coconut (all I had), but even with a cup of Splenda they were the perfect sweetness. I added a dash of salt to the egg whites and (don't scream!) a spritz of butter-flavored spray to the top of each one before baking. Perfection! - 1/28/10

    These were very tasty...but if you put them in a sealed container after they dry . They get very sticky. So I had to recook them the next day for them to be crispy! They are still a little chewy! - 8/19/18

    Very good! I also added a dash of salt, but left out the cinnamon. They are perfectly sweet even with the organic, unsweetened coconut. Definitely curbed my craving! - 7/10/10
