Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (12 ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3 cups sweetened flaked coconut
- 1 cup chopped almonds
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, flaked coconut, and chopped almonds. Mix until all ingredients are evenly coated.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. You should get about 24 cookies.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Watch them closely as they can brown quickly.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra layer of flavor, you can melt extra chocolate chips and drizzle them over the cooled cookies.
- If you prefer a slightly softer cookie, reduce the baking time by one minute.
