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
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mix together the chopped pecans, shredded coconut, quick oats, and brown sugar until evenly distributed.
- Melt Butter and Heat Milk: Place butter in a saucepan over medium heat and melt it completely. Once melted, add milk and bring the mixture to a rolling boil while stirring continuously to prevent burning.
- Add Vanilla Extract: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract to infuse flavor into the hot mixture.
- Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the hot butter, milk, and vanilla mixture over the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated with the buttery praline mixture.
- Form Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion the mixture onto a lined baking sheet or parchment paper, shaping them into individual cookies.
- Set Cookies: Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 15 minutes, so they firm up before serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, toast the pecans lightly before mixing.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- These cookies are easy to customize by adding chocolate chips or substituting nuts.
- Ensure the mixture is warm when scooping to make shaping easier.
