Ingredients

30 servings

90 can dy coated chocolate eggs
⅔ cup all-purpose flour
5 ½ cups sweetened coconut flakes
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch salt

Steps

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Combine flour, coconut and salt in a bowl.
Add sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Mix well.
Divide into 30 pieces. With wet hands, shape each piece into a 2" circle. With your thumb, create an indent in the middle.
Place on a parchment lined pan and bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
Cool 1 minute or so. While the cookies are still soft, press the indent in the middle again (and reshape the cookie slightly if needed). Cool completely on the pan.
Place 3 chocolate eggs in each cookie.
