My family loves these, and they never last past the first night they are cooked. They are substantial cookies with attractive filling.

Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup slivered almonds
- 1 cup wheat germ
- 1 cup flaked coconut
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- ½ cup butter
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix oats, almonds, wheat germ, and coconut together in a bowl.
- Combine sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa powder together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook and stir cocoa mixture until smooth, about 5 minutes. Pour cocoa mixture over oat mixture; stir to coat.

- The longer you boil the cocoa mixture, the thicker the sauce and the better the ingredients stick together.

Reviews
These tasted good. But they were too dry for me. I cooked mine for 5 minutes, and the mixture got crumbly while I was assembling them. It was difficult to form these into a ball or cookie shape that would stay together.
