Notes
Would be great with a bittersweet chocolate drizzle. Neither DH or I are overly fond of coconut, these are more like the cookie in a good white chocolate macadamia nut kind of cookie--very buttery.
Dooh!!!! Thanks for clearing that up!!!
Sounds great, but how much cream is used? Thank you!
Have you ever added chocolate chips? It's rainy, drizzly, and yucky here...a good day to bake something! 
ETA: Rainy and very gloomy for the 5th day in a row here so a good day to bake something. I added mini semi-sweet chocolate chips and these cookies are awesome! Like a cookie that tastes like a Mounds bar. yummy...
