Coconut Macaroons

Ingredients

  • 3 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is well combined and all the coconut is coated.
  3. In another bowl, beat the egg whites with the salt using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the coconut mixture. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites; you want to maintain that light, airy texture!
  5. Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, drop the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  7. Once baked, remove the macaroons from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. If you love a touch of chocolate, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and drizzle over the cooled macaroons.
    Allow the chocolate to set before serving.

Enjoy your homemade Coconut Macaroons with a cup of tea or coffee, or simply savor them as a delightful snack. These little bites of coconut goodness are sure to become a favorite in your home!
