Share

Here’s a cookie that’s so sweet and rich it tastes like you’re eating a candy bar. These are my absolute favorite chocolate chip cookies!! Bake up a batch next time you have a sweets craving and you won’t be disappointed. This recipe makes 3 dozen cookies, and came from my sister-in-law Amy–thanks Amy!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs, finely crushed
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk (NOT evaporated milk)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/3 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 bag (12 oz.) chocolate chips
1 cup walnuts, chopped

Directions:

  • Pre heat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together graham cracker crumbs, flour and baking powder. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl beat together sweetened condensed milk and butter, using an electric mixer. Beat until well combined, about 3 minutes.
  • Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture and beat for additional 2 minutes until completely incorporated.
  • Using a spoon, stir in coconut, chocolate chips, and walnuts.
  • Drop dough (by about 1 Tablespoon each) onto un-greased cookie sheet.
