Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup shredded coconut Use unsweetened for a less sweet cookie
  • 1 cup brown sugar Packed brown sugar works best
  • 1/2 cup butter Unsalted butter recommended
  • 1/4 cup milk Use any type of milk you prefer
  • 2 cups quick oats Gluten-free oats can be used for a gluten-free version
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts Optional; can use almonds, walnuts, or omit

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter, and milk. Bring this mixture to a boil and let it boil for 1 minute.
  2. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the shredded coconut, oats, vanilla extract, and nuts (if using).
  3. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto wax paper.
  4. Let the cookies cool and set before serving.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Freeze in a sealed bag for longer storage. For softer cookies, reduce boiling time to about 30 seconds.
