    one thousand grams. So I'm guessing a little over half the bag

    thats the recipe i used.... they tasted really good in the smushed balls that they became when i scraped them off the cookie sheet LOL so i went out tonight and bought some parchment paper... gonna try to bake them on that and hopefully it works out... cross my fingers (had to buy all new ingredients too lol... )

    bty- I saw this post earlier and just had to pick up some coconut to make these....gee thanks...LOL

    Parchment is the only way to go---expensive, but worth not having a headache with stuck food and clean up of your bakeware
