Dad's Killer Coconut Cookies

Since I've been putting up a bunch of sweet stuff anyways, I'll put up my dad's crazy cookies. They really are killer cookies because of how bad they are for you! But they are delicious! My dad makes them for us during the holidays, and they hardly ever make it to the cookie jar!
