These homemade Geneva cookies feature a delectable combination of pecans, candy cane, and coconut. A delicious treat for the holidays or any time of year!

Ingredients: 1 cup butter, softened. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans. 1/2 cup crushed candy cane pieces. 1/2 cup shredded coconut.

Instructions: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Divide the cookie dough into three equal portions. To the first portion, mix in the finely chopped pecans. To the second portion, mix in the crushed candy cane pieces. To the third portion, mix in the shredded coconut. Wrap each flavored dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Take a small amount of each flavored dough and roll them together to form a cookie ball with a marbled appearance. Place the cookie balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them. Gently press down on each cookie ball with a fork to slightly flatten. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
