These delightful coconut cookies are chewy, flavorful, and easy to make, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using parchment paper ensures easy cleanup and prevents sticking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, flour, and salt until evenly mixed.
Mixing the dry ingredients first helps distribute the salt evenly.
Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and honey to the dry mixture and stir until well combined.
Ensure the mixture is sticky enough to hold its shape when scooped.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Using a cookie scoop can help create uniform-sized cookies.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Keep an eye on the cookies during the last few minutes to prevent over-browning.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on the baking sheet helps the cookies set and prevents them from breaking.
Serve the cookies as a delightful snack or dessert, and enjoy their chewy texture and rich flavor.
Pair with a warm beverage for a comforting treat.
