1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup fruit preserves your choice

Preheat oven to 375F 190C. Grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
Combine flour and salt; gradually stir into the creamed mixture until well blended.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in coconut, then place 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets. Press the center of each ball with your thumb to make an indentation.
Fill each indentation with a small amount of fruit preserves.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in preheated oven, or until edges are lightly browned. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
Once cool, decorate with candy-coated chocolate eggs to resemble bird eggs in a nest.
