Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups quick oats
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup flaked coconut
- 1/2 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Prepare two cookie sheets with parchment paper but leave the oven off.
- In a medium to large sauce pan, add cocoa powder, sugar, milk and butter. Bring to a boil and stir to make sure sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in oats. Add vanilla, coconut and nuts and stir again. (Vanilla should not be added when liquid is cooking as it makes mixture foam, add it after the oats as indicated).
- Let mixture sit on stove off heat for ten minutes then stir again.
- Scoop warm mixture onto parchment lined cookie sheets, 12 per pan. I used a small ice cream scoop.
- Wet your fingers in a little bowl of water and flatten the scoops of mixture down to cookie size, tucking in and smoothing sides with your fingers.
- Refrigerate for an hour to set and enjoy. Keep refrigerated or serve immediately.
