Ingredients
- 3 cups shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Prepare the tray: Line a large plate or baking tray with parchment paper and set aside to prevent the cookies from sticking.
- Mix the dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, powdered sugar, and sweetened condensed milk. Stir well until the mixture forms a sticky, cohesive dough.
- Form and shape cookies: Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form small balls of the dough. Place them evenly spaced on the prepared parchment-lined plate or tray. Press each ball gently into a classic cookie shape.
- Chill to set: Refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes or until they firm up and hold their shape, ready to be served.
Notes
- For extra flavor, toast the shredded coconut lightly before mixing.
- You can add vanilla extract or a pinch of salt to enhance the taste.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- If you prefer a firmer texture, chill the cookies longer before serving.
- Use sweetened condensed milk for the best texture and sweetness balance; avoid evaporated milk as a substitute.
