Instructions

Ready to make these easy and delicious no-bake cookies? Here’s how to do it:

  1. Melt the Butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
  2. Add the Sugars and Cream: Once the butter is melted, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, heavy cream, and salt. Stir well to combine.
  3. Boil the Mixture: Bring the mixture to a boil and let it boil for about 3 minutes. Stir constantly while it thickens slightly.
  4. Add the Remaining Ingredients: Remove the saucepan from heat, then stir in the chopped pecans, shredded coconut, and vanilla extract until everything is well combined.
  5. Shape the Cookies: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the parchment, shaping them into cookies as you go.
  6. Cool and Set: Allow the cookies to cool at room temperature for 20-30 minutes until they set. For quicker setting, place them in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • For quicker cooling, pop the cookies in the fridge after they’ve been shaped.
  • You can store these cookies in an airtight container for up to a week at room temperature.
  • If you prefer more texture, you can toast the pecans lightly before adding them to the mixture for an added depth of flavor.
