Ingredients

  • 3 1/4 cups (10 oz/300g) shredded coconut (sweetened)
  • 7 ounces/225 g sweetened condensed milk (1/2 of a 14 ounce can)
  • 1/2 cup (3 oz/90 g) chocolate chips

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl combine together sweetened shredded coconut with exactly 7 ounces of weighed sweetened condensed milk (resist the urge to add the whole can or more than 7 ounces, cookies will melt).

  3. 3

    Using a tablespoon sized cookie dough scoop, scoop the coconut mixture and pack it into the scoop but don't overload it. Drop onto the baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Bake for 10-15 minutes until the cookies are lightly browned. Remove from oven but keep the cookies on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes to set.

  5. 5

    Melt the chocolate chips in a small bowl in the microwave. Cook for 30 seconds then stir the chocolate chips vigorously. Cook for an additional 15 seconds and stir again. Cook for 15 seconds at a time until chocolate is completely melted being sure to stir between each. Spoon the melted chocolate into a sandwich sized plastic zip bag. Cut a tiny bit off of one corner of the bag. Then drizzle over all of the cookies.
