You might believe that this was created to eliminate all of the time-consuming wrapping and messy deep-frying, but that’s not the case! The keto community created it because, unlike this person, they are unable to consume egg roll wrappers. So, rather than making what is essentially egg roll filling in a bowl, we are making the actual dish in all of its mouthwatering and textured beauty. Adding more green onions as a garnish is optional.

These were wonderful. The only changes I made was I added a sprinkle of cinnamon and a tsp of vanilla. Next time I will toast the coconut first for a more distinct coconut taste. This is one of my favorite cookies!!
The lighter texture of this cookie makes it a great change from my usual toll house cookies. I used semi-sweet chocolate as a personal preference, I’m not a milk chocolate fan. I found using my cookie scoop required a little additional time in the oven. This is a delicious cookie and I’ll be making these again soon.
I like the cakey texture and the coconut in the cookie. The walnuts give a good crunch to the otherwise soft cookie. The flavor was just a little bland for me to want to make again.
These cookies were pretty good. There are a few changes I will make next time I make them but that is due to personal preference. I will be adding some cinnamon and nutmeg next time. I added some to the last 3rd of the batch and loved them that much more.
Did not have chocolate or walnuts…but still tried this. Turned out kinda cake-like to me. I though OK, but others really liked. I’m sure if I had made it as it’s supposed to be, with choc&nuts it would be much better.
Very tasty – perfect for those who like soft/cake-like cookies. I substituted 1 cup of white chocolate chips for the nuts (personal preference).
