I have made these for YEARS as my husband loves them. I use parchment paper on my cookie sheet, no greasing-much easier to remove to cool! I also chill the dough for an hour before scooping; also helps a lot.

Way too easy to make, way too delicious too! I especially love them warm and fresh from the oven, but they keep extremely well also.

I oopsed the recipe and accidentally added the entire can of condensed milk (14 oz,). To make up for it I just threw in another whole bag (2 and 2/3 cups) of coconut. Left the rest the same and they still came out awesome. Double the recipe with no extra work. Great recipe Sabrina thanks for sharing.
