Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Cookie Base
  • 1 cup butter (unsalted is best) Melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup shredded coconut (sweetened for that extra yum)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
Toppings
  • 3 cups caramel sauce (store-bought works just fine) For drizzling
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (dark chocolate is preferred) For drizzling and dipping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir in the sugar and vanilla extract until dissolved. Add a pinch of salt.
  2. Add the graham cracker crumbs into the melted butter mixture and stir until well combined.
  3. Fold in the shredded coconut, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
Shaping
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions and form them into small discs. Place them on the baking sheet, leaving space between each.
Topping
  1. Drizzle caramel sauce over each disc generously.
  2. Melt chocolate chips in the microwave, then drizzle over the cookies. Optionally dip the bottoms in chocolate.
Chilling
  1. Place the cookie sheet in the fridge until the chocolate is set, about 30-60 minutes.
  2. Transfer the cookies to an airtight container and store in the fridge.

Notes

Don’t overheat your chocolate when melting; heat it in small increments. Optionally, toast the coconut for added flavor.
