With mixer on low, gradually add flour and l/z tea-spoon table salt, and beat to combine. Press dough together in plastic wrap, then roll into 1%-inch balls. Dip each ball in beaten egg, and roll in coconut. Place balls on parchment-lined baking sheets, and press an indentation into each with your thumb. Bake for 10 minutes,then remove sheets from oven, and re-press indentations. Bake cookies until golden, 9 to 10 minutes more. Let cool on wire racks. Repeat with remain-ing dough.
