The Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make these Almond Joy Cookies (exact measurements and full recipe instructions are below in the printable recipe card):

• Sweetened flaked coconut – you will find sweetened flaked coconut in the baking aisle.
• Sweetened condensed milk
• Almonds – use almonds that are roasted and salted. I found them in the nut section of the snack aisle and lightly chopped them before adding to the cookie dough.
• Semi sweet chocolate chips – semi sweet chocolate has just the right flavor for these cookies and won’t burn quickly like milk chocolate chips will.

How to Make Almond Joy Cookies

• This could not be easier! Just mix all four ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

• Then, scoop the dough onto cookie sheets lined with parchment paper. This is especially easy to do if you have a cookie scoop. Once you have all of the cookies scooped onto the sheets, wet your hands with water and shape the cookies into rounds and slightly flatten the tops.

• Bake the cookies at 325ºF for 12-14 minutes until the edges are golden brown.

• Allow the cookies to cool to room temperature on the cookie sheets, then you can serve them immediately or move them to wire cooling racks.

Variations

• CHOCOLATE DRIZZLE – For extra chocolate flavor, melt 1/4-1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave in 15 second intervals then drizzle over the top of the baked and cooled cookies.
• DIFFERENT NUTS – You can switch it up and go with chopped walnuts or pecans.
• CHERRY – Add dried cherries to the cookie batter for a fruity twist.

How to Store the Cookies

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container, on a plate wrapped with plastic wrap, or in a zip top bag. The cookies will keep at room temperature for 3-5 days.
