Ingredients

  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (170 grams or 6 ounces)
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips (170 grams or 6 ounces)
  • 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes (85 grams or 3 ounces)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (114 grams or 4 ounces)
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (114 grams or 3 ½ ounces)
  • 14 ounce can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.  Line baking sheets with parchment paper.  Set aside. 
  • Place the chips, coconut, and nuts in a large bowl.  Sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs over and mix well.   
  • Pour the condensed milk over the dry ingredients and stir so everything is evenly coated.  It will be a very, very thick mixture.   
  • With a #40 disher/scooper or about 2 tablespoons, drop the cookies 3 across and 4 down on the baking sheet.  
  • With the back of a flat pancake turner or moistened fingers, press the cookies about ½ inch flat. 
  •  If they stick, which they probably will, they are easily scraped off with a table knife.  
  • Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, just until set. They will not have a lot of color but that is how it should be.
  • Cool and store in an airtight container up to 5 days.

Notes

  1. A special note about the sweetened condensed milk.  When testing this cookie I found that different brands of sweetened condensed milk have different thicknesses. The one that works the best is Eagle Brand. The looser condensed milks will require more graham cracker crumbs to tighten up the liquid and stop the cookies from spreading. 
  2. Graham Cracker Crumbs - If using graham cracker cookies, you will need to crush them between your hands and place them in a food processor. Process to make crumbs. Alternatively, the cookies can be placed in a plastic bag and crushed with a heavy pan or rolling pin to make uniform, fine crumbs.
  3. Cutting the Pecans -Go here for an easier way to cut the nuts. 
  4. Before baking, be sure to double pan them.
