Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup pecans, chopped
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1 cup brown sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped pecans, shredded coconut, quick oats, and brown sugar, ensuring all the dry components are evenly distributed.
- Melt Butter and Add Milk: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter carefully. Once melted, stir in the milk and bring this mixture to a gentle boil to meld the flavors together.
- Add Vanilla Extract: Remove the saucepan from the heat immediately after boiling and stir in the vanilla extract for added fragrance and sweetness.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the warm butter and milk mixture over the bowl of dry ingredients, mixing thoroughly until all components are evenly coated and sticky.
- Form Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop portions of the mixture onto a lined baking sheet to shape the cookies.
- Set Cookies: Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 15 minutes to firm up before serving.
Notes
- For a nuttier flavor, lightly toast the pecans before mixing.
- Substitute milk with almond or coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Use quick oats for the best texture; old-fashioned oats may result in a chewier cookie.
