Instructions
Step 1: Prepare Your Baking Surface
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Make the Caramel Base
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, evaporated milk, and salt. Stir constantly until the mixture reaches a gentle boil.
Step 3: Boil & Thicken
Let the mixture boil for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to thicken slightly. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
Step 4: Add the Coconut & Pecans
Quickly mix in the shredded coconut and chopped pecans, stirring well to coat everything in the caramel mixture.
Step 5: Drop & Set
Using a spoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared parchment paper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Step 6: Enjoy!
Once set, enjoy your delicious no-bake praline cookies! Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
