Coconut Oatmeal "Macaroons"

I had some leftover sweetened condensed milk sitting in the fridge that needed to get used up. Since I didn't have a recipe, I made up my own. I just mixed some coconut and porridge (quick) oats together with the sweetened condensed milk, and baked in the oven.

This is just about the easiest cookie recipe ever, super quick, and they were really tasty. You could also argue that they are somewhat healthy, with some calcium and the oats :) They turned out crispy on the outside and soft, dense and chewy on the inside. I didn't actually measure anything, but here's a guesstimate:

Coconut Oatmeal "Macaroons"

1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

1/2 cup dessicated coconut (unsweetened)

1/2 to 3/4 cup porridge (quick) oats

Preheat oven to 350 F and line a cookie sheet/baking tray with non-stick baking paper (or grease the pan). Mix all ingredients together until combined. Drop heaping teaspoonfuls of dough onto the pan. Bake in oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start turning brown. Cool on wire rack, and enjoy.

Makes 12 cookies.
