Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Prepare the Base:
    In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, and milk. Stir to combine and bring to a boil over medium heat. Allow the mixture to boil for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.

  • Form the Cookies:
    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the sheet, spacing them a couple of inches apart.
  • Let Them Set:
    Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 30-45 minutes, or until they harden and hold their shape.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
    Once set, enjoy your chewy and nutty No Bake Pecan Coconut Praline Cookies! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

Notes

  • You can substitute the pecans for other nuts like walnuts or almonds if you prefer.
  • For an extra flavor boost, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the mixture.
  • If the cookies don’t set properly, place them in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to help them firm up faster.
