Treasure Cookies
 
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
1 (12 oz.) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts or slivered almonds)
 
Heat oven to 375°F. In small bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, flour and baking powder. In large mixing bowl, beat sweetened condensed milk and butter until smooth. Add graham cracker crumb mixture, mix well. Stir in coconut, chcoclate chips and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 9 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Store loosely covered at room temperature. Makes about 3 dozen.

I thought I'd lost this recipe, I really liked these cookies when I made them a few years ago and since I already had to make some Christmas goodies with sweetened condensed milk I thought I'd make these again, and wanted to share and preserve the recipe in case I don't remember where I put it after I bake these gems today. LOL

P.S. These over-bake quite easily so be sure to keep a close eye on them. They're worth it though, crispy and yummy, and with no fresh eggs in the batter you can even nibble on the dough. LOL

Shoot, GV, if eating cookie dough with eggs would kill you, I'd be dead.  I try so hard not to do it, but I just can't help myself.  My whole family would be dead after eating as much cookie dough as we did last week  while baking 25 batches of cookies (most of which had eggs)!

these sound very similar to a bar cookie my sister makes. It seems to have a lot of the same ingredients but im not sure if all are the same. i will have to ask her. they do sound scrumptious

I baked some this morning and already ate two, they sort of taste like the Girl Scout Samoa cookies, crispy, coconutty and chocolatey, yum yum. LOL
 
Yeah Pache, I've eaten scads of raw cookie dough and never got so much as a burp out of it, some folks are quite scared of eggs these days so I just thought I'd relieve their worry if they couldn't keep their mitts out of the bowl.
