I’m always on the lookout for easy and quick recipes – so when I found this recipe for Hello Dolly Cookies, I knew I needed to try it. First of all, my grandmother’s name is Dolly! Obviously, I was meant to make these cookies and call them Hello Nanu! But these cookies also contain my all time favorite ingredients: dark chocolate, pecans, and coconut. Mmmmm. I ended up adding peanut butter chips which wasn’t in the original recipe, because I’m awesome like that.
So let’s make some Hello Nanu Cookies, shall we?
Ingredients:
- 1 stick of unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups of graham cracker crumbs
- 1.5 cups of cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup of peanut butter chips
- 1 cup of shredded sweetened cocunut
- 1 cup of pecans, coarsely chopped
- 1/3 cup of sweetened condensed milk
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. Pulse about 8 graham cracker sheets in a food processor to make your graham cracker crumbs.
3. Place the butter cut into pieces in a bowl and microwave until melted.
4. Mix the graham cracker crumbs and the melted butter and press into the bottom of a 8×8 pan.
5. First layer coconut, then chopped pecans, then peanut butter chips, and finally chocolate chips on the graham cracker crust.
6. Drizzle sweetened condensed milk over the mixture.
7. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes or until the top is light brown.
8. Let the cookies cool, and then refrigerate for at least an hour before cutting.
Ta-da! You have these gorgeous, decadent cookies, that look more complicated than they are! The different textures and the mix of salty and sweet is scrumptious! I hope you’ll make some soon!
Don’t forget to say hello to my Nanu!
