edit About Kitchen Cabinet Cookies

This recipe comes from the White Dog Cafe in Philadelphia, with a couple of modifications for myself. This ia a really terrific cookie for freezing in logs to have on hand when you need that cookie fix. The butterscotch and coconut are perfect together, and I often leave out the chocolate chips and walnuts altogether so make it a little simpler.
