Coconut Pecan Praline Cookies: Chewy

Instructions:

1. Line baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly grease the paper with a drop of coconut oil.
2. Combine butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, and half-and-half in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat.
3. Stir constantly until butter is melted and sugar has dissolved; bring to a steady boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
4. Simmer for 5–8 minutes until the syrup thickens and becomes glossy.
5. Remove the pan from heat immediately and stir in toasted pecans, shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
6. Using a cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
7. Allow cookies to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour until set.
