Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 1/2 cups roasted cashews
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup quick cooking rolled oats
Wet Ingredients
- 1 can (14 ounce) sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350° F (175° C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the shredded coconut, roasted cashews, semi-sweet chocolate chips, rolled oats, and sweetened condensed milk. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed and form a sticky dough.
- Form Cookies: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, portion out mounds of dough measuring about 3 tablespoons or a scant 1/4 cup each onto the prepared baking sheet. Use your hands to gently push any loose bits back into the mounds to shape the cookies.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the cookies are golden brown on top and set.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to fully set. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature for a delicious treat!
Notes
- For crunchier cookies, consider toasting the coconut and cashews lightly beforehand.
- You can substitute dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Adding a pinch of salt can enhance the sweetness and flavor balance.
