Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350* Spread the almonds on a cookie sheet and bake for 5-10 minutes. Stir occasionally and keep an eye on them because they will burn if you forget about them.
Beat butter and sugars until creamy. Mix in egg, milk and vanilla and cream again. Slowly beat in salt, baking soda, and flour. Stir in coconut, oats, chocolate chips, almonds, and almond joy pieces by hand until combined.
Drop dough by tbsp. onto a baking sheet at least 2 inches apart. Bake 12 minutes. Cool on sheet for 1-2 minutes then remove to waxed paper to cool the rest of the way. Store in an air tight container.
