Coconut-covered cookie (5)

I believe the answer is:

samoa

(Other definitions for samoa that I've seen before include "Southwest Pacific island group" , "Group of islands in the South Pacific" , "Commonwealth country in the Pacific, capital Apia" , "South-west Pacific nation" , "island territory" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
