1 cup Whole wheat flour
1 tsp Baking powder
1/8 tsp Salt
1 cup Unsweetened coconut, flaked
1 cup Unsugared dates, chopped
4 tsp Orange peel, fresh grated
1 cup Pecans, finely ground


Cream the butter, egg and vanilla together in a large mixing bowl. In

Add the flour mixture a little at a time, to the creamed mixture,
beating after each addition. In a medium bowl, combine the coconut,
dates, orange peel, and 1/2 cup of the pecans. Stir into the cookie
mixture. Divide the dough in half and form into two logs,
approximately 1.1/2 inches in diameter. Place the remaining 1/2 cup

each log in waxed paper and chill for 1 hour. To bake, slice the logs
into 1/8 inch rounds and place them on an ungreased cookie sheet.
