I modified this from No Bake Chocolate Haystack Cookies, because I wanted a lower-sugar cookie. My target was to try to get one cookie = 15g carbs, which is one dietary carb for those who are counting. Cooking (passive) time = cooling time.
Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup cocoa
1 dash salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups rolled oats
1 cup flaked coconut
1 cup walnuts, chopped and toasted
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, milk, butter, cocoa and salt.
2. Heat to boiling, stirring frequently.
3. When it has reached a rolling boil, cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
4. Remove pan from heat and mix in vanilla, oats, coconut and walnuts.
5. Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper or silicone baking sheet.
6. Work quickly!
7. Let cool completely - refrigerate for a few hours or overnight to completely set up.
