* 1/2 cup butter

* 2 tbsp. whole milk

* 2 1/2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder

* 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats

* 1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut, plus more for garnish

* 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

* 1 tablespoon Nutella spread

* 1 teaspoon, vanilla extract

* A pinch of salt

Directions

* Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment or wax paper, and set aside.

* Bring the sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa powder to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Let boil for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring often. Remove from the heat.

* Stir in the oats, coconut, peanut butter, Nutella spread, vanilla, and salt until everything is combined.

* Working quickly before the mixture sets, drop tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared pans, flattening slightly, if you like. Immediately sprinkle with more coconut; press gently to help the coconut stick to the cookies. Let stand at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to one week.
