Add butter, sugar and syrup into a small, heavy-based pan.
Heat gently until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved. This will take about 10 minutes over a low heat. Don’t let the mixture boil as it may crystalize.
Leave the mixture to cool slightly, about 2-3 minutes, then sieve in the flour. Pour in the lemon juice and stir well to mix thoroughly.
Drop four teaspoonfuls of the mixture onto each of the prepared baking trays to make neat circles, about 10 cm / 4 in apart then sprinkle a small amount of coconut on to each drop.
Bake in the pre-heated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the mixture is well spread out, looks lacy and is a dark golden color. Once baked, quickly remove from the oven and sprinkle a very small amount coconut over the cookies. Leave them on the baking tray until they firm up and then transfer to a cooling rack.
When they are completely cool, they will be brittle and can break easily, so be gentle with them! Store in an air tight container of decorate the tops to your liking if you wish to.
