Girl Scout Cookie with coconut (5)

I believe the answer is:

samoa

(Other definitions for samoa that I've seen before include "island territory" , "South Pacific island country, gaining its independence from New Zealand in 1962" , "Southwest Pacific island group" , "SW Pacific island chain" , "Group of islands in the South Pacific" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
