Ingredients
Scale
- 14 oz. bag sweetened coconut flakes
- 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the coconut flakes, chocolate chips, and chopped pecans.
- Add Sweetened Condensed Milk: Pour in the sweetened condensed milk and stir until all ingredients are evenly coated.
- Shape the Cookies: Using an ice cream scooper or spoon, scoop out the dough and shape it into discs. Gently press down on the tops to flatten slightly. To prevent sticking, dampen your fingers with water as needed.
- Chill the Dough: For best results and to prevent spreading, refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes to 1 hour before baking.
- Bake: Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the coconut start to turn golden brown.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the sweetened condensed milk is well mixed to achieve a consistent dough.
- Refrigerating the dough helps maintain the cookies’ shape during baking.
- For a nuttier flavor, lightly toast the chopped pecans before adding them to the dough.
