Original recipe yields 2 1/2 dozen

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or fork until only small lumps remain. Sprinkle the water and 1 teaspoon vanilla over the mixture and mix well using a fork. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup butter, egg yolk and sugar until smooth. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla, cocoa and coconut until smooth. Set aside. Use 1/2 of the dough at a time. On a cloth covered board, dusted generously with sugar, roll dough out to 1/16 inch thick. Cut the dough into 2 1/2 inch squares. Spread 1 teaspoon of filling onto each square, bring the corners to the center and press lightly to seal. Place them onto an ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until edges are golden. Cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheets before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

"Yummy, with a flaky crust and chewy chocolate filling. I put some seedless raspberry jam in a plastic bag, cut a tiny hole in the corner, drizzled, and let it dry. Perfect for the fancy but not too ..." See moretime consuming recipe i was looking for!"

"These are so good!! a little sweet, but I thought they were amazing!!! I accidentally burned one batch.....DONT!!!!! They were only like two minutes overdone, and they looked just a little golden, but..." See more they were really crunchy, and almost all the flavor was gone!!!!!! :( I had trouble with the shape, but I came to the conclusion that I didn't have to make the shape that the recipe said!!! So I made folded squares instead!!! :) Great recipe!! Thanks a lot for adding it!!"

"I found them time consuming to put together but would probably get easier the second time around. Not sure what they are supposed to look like so I took a picture of mine and tried to send it here but..." See more it doesn't seem to work for me. If someone else has a picture it would be nice to see what they are really supposed to look like"
