Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 3 cups shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2/3 cup condensed milk
Instructions
- Prepare the tray: Line a large plate or baking tray with parchment paper to ensure the cookies do not stick to the surface once formed.
- Mix the dough: In a mixing bowl, combine shredded coconut, condensed milk, and powdered sugar. Stir thoroughly until the mixture becomes a sticky, cohesive dough.
- Shape the cookies: Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form small balls of the dough. Then, gently flatten each ball slightly to achieve a cookie shape. Arrange them evenly on the prepared parchment-lined tray.
- Chill the cookies: Place the tray in the refrigerator and let the cookies set for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Serve and store: Once firm, serve the cookies chilled. Store any leftovers in an airtight container inside the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Ensure the shredded coconut is unsweetened if you want to control the sweetness.
- For variations, you can drizzle melted chocolate over the cookies once chilled.
- If the dough is too sticky, chill it briefly before shaping.
- Cookies can be stored refrigerated for up to one week.
