Ingredients

  • Shredded coconut – Unsweetened or lightly sweetened both work but avoid the super-dry stuff unless you enjoy sadness.
  • Sweetened condensed milk – This is the glue the sweetness, and the magic. Do not substitute randomly unless you enjoy experiments gone wrong.
  • Vanilla extract – Optional in spirit essential in vibe. It makes everything taste more “bakery-level.”

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper because scrubbing pans is not a personality trait.
  • Dump everything into a bowl. Coconut first, condensed milk second, vanilla last. Stir until the mixture looks sticky, thick, and evenly coated.
  • Scoop small mounds onto your prepared baking sheet. Use a spoon, cookie scoop, or your hands if you’re feeling bold. Keep them compact.
  • Bake until golden, about 20–25 minutes. The tops should look lightly toasted, not aggressively tan.
  • Cool slightly before eating. I know it’s hard. But give them 10 minutes so they set and don’t fall apart in betrayal.
