Ingredients

  • 2 sticks salted butter at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup light or dark brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped chocolate chunks or chips
  • 1 cup sweetened or unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1/2 cup roasted peanuts or any other toasted nut
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  • Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened salted butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and kosher salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chunks or chips, coconut flakes, and roasted peanuts.
  • Fold in the sweetened condensed milk, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough.
  • Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
