Ingredients

3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened1 cup sugar2 large eggs4 teaspoons grated orange zest1 tablespoon vanilla extract2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour3/4 teaspoon baking powder1/2 teaspoon salt1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut, toasted1/2 cup chopped dried mangoes1/2 cup pistachios, toasted and chopped

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, orange zest and vanilla. In a small bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in coconut, mangoes and pistachios.

Divide dough in half. On ungreased baking sheets, shape each half into a 12x4-in. rectangle. Bake 15-20 minutes or until firm to the touch.

Cool on pans on wire racks until cool enough to handle. Transfer baked rectangles to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, cut crosswise into 1/2-in. slices. Place on ungreased baking sheets, cut side down. Bake 6-7 minutes longer or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
