Ingredients

  • 4 oz white chocolate melted
  • 1 ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla or coconut extract
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 3 cups oats
  • 1 cup coconut
  • 2 drops red or pink food colouring

Instructions

  • Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper, Set aside.
  • Use a double boiler to melt the white chocolate until it's smooth.
  • While it's melting grab a large pot. Add the sugar and milk, cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.
  • Add the butter and white chocolate to the pot and cook for about 1 to 3 minutes, whisking until the mixture comes together. It's going to look weird at first and you're going to think you ruined it. But keep whisking and have faith I would not lead you astray.
  • Add the vanilla, salt and oats and stir for about a minute. Then remove from heat.
  • Add the food colouring to the coconut, start slowly and keep adding until you get the desired shade of pink you want.
  • Add the coconut to the pot and stir until combined. If you want the cookies a bit more pink you can add more colouring. It's a personal thing.
  • Use a spoon to drop the mixture on the cookie sheets while it's hot.
  • Allow to cool. If possible, I can't resist these ones, so I always eat some hot. Then act shocked when I burn the roof of my mouth. Apparently you never grow out of some things. Meh, moving on.
  • Serve with a big old pink coconut loving smile!
