5 1/3 cups flaked coconut
1 - 14oz can sweetened, condensed milk
2 tsp. vanilla

Combine all ingredients and mix well.  Drop batter 2" apart onto greased cookie sheet.  Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.  With a spatula dipped in water, IMMEDIATELY remove to wire racks to cool.  Makes 4 dozen cookies.

Notes...Add green food coloring to the batter.  After dropping on cookie sheet, make an indentation in each one to form a "bird nest".  After baking and cooling, add tiny jellybeans for an Easter treat.
