Ingredients

  • Shortbread or vanilla wafer cookies
  • 1 cup shredded coconut toasted
  • 1/4 - 1 cup caramel topping
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. 
  2. In a small bowl combine coconut and caramel. Note that the amount of caramel used may vary depending on the brand - start with 1/4 cup and increase until coconut flakes are well coated and sticky. Place in the refrigerator. 
  3. Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler or microwave in 30 second increments until melted and smooth. Carefully dip the rounded side of the wafer in the chocolate and place them on the prepared baking sheet to harden (chocolate side up).  
  4. Once chocolate is firm turn cookie over and place a heaping teaspoon of the coconut mixture on the cookie. With the remaining chocolate pipe over the top of each cookie.  Sprinkle with additional coconut if desired. Let set and enjoy! 

Notes

  • For a sugar free version I used Lilly's chocolate chips sweetened with stevia, Walden Farms sugar free/calorie free caramel sauce, and unsweetened coconut flakes.  Each Nilla wafer is under 3 carbs each.
