Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini candy-coated chocolates
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until well combined.
Sprinkle in the flour and stir until the mixture binds together. It should be sticky and moist.
Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and candy-coated chocolates to the mixture, folding them in gently to evenly distribute.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, scoop mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently press each mound to ensure they hold their shape but avoid flattening them too much.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
