For the Cookies:
2 cups light brown sugar (Imperial Sugar recommended)
1/2 cup granulated sugar (Imperial Sugar Extra Fine)
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 stick salted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Melt and Mix: In a large saucepan, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, evaporated milk, corn syrup, and butter. Heat over medium, stirring frequently until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
Boil to Soft Ball Stage: Bring the mixture to a boil and let it cook without stirring until it reaches the soft ball stage (235°F), about 3-5 minutes.
Add Vanilla: Remove the saucepan from heat and gently stir in the vanilla extract.
Combine Coconut and Pecans: Mix in the flaked coconut and chopped pecans, stirring for 4-5 minutes until the mixture thickens and cools slightly.
Scoop Cookies: Use a medium (2-tablespoon) cookie scoop to drop the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
Finish and Cool: Sprinkle each cookie with flaked sea salt. Let them cool completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
