  1. Finely chop the pecan pieces by hand or pulse them briefly in a food processor until they are fine crumbs.

  2. In a large bowl, stir the honey and confectioners sugar together until smooth and thick.

  3. Add the sweetened coconut flakes and the chopped pecans to the bowl and mix until evenly combined.

  4. Knead the mixture with clean hands until it holds together like a soft dough. If it is too sticky, dust your hands with a little more confectioners sugar.

  5. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each one into a ball.

  6. Flatten each ball gently into a round about ½ inch (1.3 cm) thick.

  7. Place the rounds on a plate or parchment-lined tray and let them firm up at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving.
