This recipe came from a deep love of Mango and wanting to find a way to work it into a cookie mixture. I found a great cookie recipe base and added my own little additions. This is a little bit of a fussy recipe but the result are extremely fluffy cake like cookies. The mango and coconut are always a magical combination. I used sliced dried mango from Whole Foods bulk section and they cooked to a perfect tender consistency. These will add a little tropical feel to these chilly December days.

Hi Lorinda!
Thank you so much! They were really good. If you have a Whole Foods or I usually get mine in bulk at BJ’s or you can sometimes even find a small bag in CVS, just make sure it is Philippines Mango to get the right taste. Have fun! 🙂
