Ingredients:
2 cups pecans 🌰
2 cups sweetened shredded coconut 🥥
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 🍚
1 cup brown sugar 🍂

Instructions:
1. Toast the Pecans:
In a dry skillet, toast the pecans over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, stirring often, until they are lightly browned and fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and evaporated milk.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the toasted pecans and sweetened shredded coconut. Mix everything together until fully combined.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
Use a spoon to scoop out the mixture and drop it in small spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping them into small mounds or cookie shapes.
5. Cool and Set:
Allow the cookies to cool at room temperature for 2 hours, or until they are firm and set.
