Directions

In a large bowl beat butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer at medium speed until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Beat egg and vanilla into mixture.
In a small bowl combine flour, pecans, cocoa, and baking soda together until well blended.
Add flour mixture to butter mixture and blend together until stiff dough is formed.
Sprinkle coconut over the work surface.
Take the dough and divide into 4 parts.
Shape each dough part into a roll at about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
Roll the dough parts in the coconut until they become thickly coated.
Wrap dough in plastic wrap and place in refrigerator until the dough becomes firm for at least 1 hour or up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 6 weeks.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut the dough rolls into slices about 1/8-inch thick.
Place slices on ungreased cookie sheets about 2 inches apart and bake cookies for 10 to 13 minutes or until the cookies become firm and lightly browned.
Remove cookies from cookie sheet to wire racks and allow cookies to cool completely.
