Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 1/2 cups shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup sliced or chopped almonds
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, sliced almonds, and vanilla extract. Mix until everything is evenly coated.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about two inches apart. You do not need to flatten them.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cookies are set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra chocolatey treat, you can drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled cookies.
- If you want a slightly softer cookie, reduce the baking time by one minute.
- You can substitute chopped almonds with whole almonds if you prefer a larger crunch in the center.
