These sound delicious! I'm our official family Christmas cookie baker, and I'm always looking for new recipes to try....I'm bookmarking this one. Is copha hard to find? I've never heard of it before. If I can't find it, is there something you can recommend as a substitute? Thanks!

Copha is a vegetable shortening made from predominately coconut oil. It is the same kind of product as crisco except crisco is made with cheaper oil. Bascially it is a semi solid hydrogenated vegetable oil so use crisco or some other shortening but add a little bit more coconut to compensate for the lost coconut twang of copha.
