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 Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and flaked coconut. Mix until everything is evenly coated.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about two inches apart.
- Press a few chopped almonds onto the top of each cookie mound.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra rich flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
- If you want a firmer cookie, chill the dough mixture for 30 minutes before scooping and baking.
- You can toast the almonds lightly before adding them to the tops for a deeper nutty flavor.
