Description
Delicious no-bake cookies made with coconut, pecans, and a sweet praline mixture.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 cups Shredded Coconut
- 1 cup Pecans, chopped
- 0.5 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup Brown Sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon (optional)
- 2 cups Quick Oats
Instructions
- Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the brown sugar and sweetened condensed milk. Stir continuously until the mixture begins to bubble—this should take about 3 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract, salt, and ground cinnamon (if using), combining thoroughly.
- Quickly fold in the shredded coconut and chopped pecans, mixing well until evenly distributed.
- Add the quick oats and stir until the mixture is thick and everything is well coated.
- Working quickly, drop heaping spoonfuls (about 2 tablespoons each) of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten or shape them slightly with the back of your spoon.
- Allow the cookies to cool at room temperature for at least 20 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator for faster setting.
- Once firm, enjoy immediately or transfer to an airtight container for storage.
Notes
- These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
- Feel free to modify the nuts or add chocolate chips for extra flavor.
