Instructions

Toast the Coconut: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread shredded coconut on a baking sheet and toast for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside to cool.
Prepare the Cookie Base: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add milk, brown sugar, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir constantly, bringing it to a gentle boil. Simmer for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
Combine the Oats and Coconut: In a large bowl, combine oats and toasted coconut. Pour the caramel mixture over the oats and coconut, stirring to coat evenly.
Shape the Cookies: Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper. Scoop 1-2 tablespoons of the mixture, roll into a ball, and flatten it into a round shape. Repeat for all cookies.
Chill the Cookies: Refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes to set.
Prepare the Chocolate Drizzle: Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
Drizzle the Chocolate: Once the cookies have set, drizzle melted chocolate over each cookie using a spoon or piping bag.
Serve and Enjoy: Let the chocolate harden slightly before serving, or chill until the chocolate is fully set.

Notes

For a nutty twist, add chopped almonds, pecans, or walnuts to the cookie base.

For a peanut butter flavor, add a tablespoon of peanut butter to the caramel mixture.

For a darker chocolate version, use dark chocolate chips for the drizzle.

These cookies can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 2-3 months.
