Coconut Macaroons are the ultimate treat for the coconut lover in your family. Every bite is full of moist and tasty flakes of coconut, and it's hard to eat just one. The recipe is easy to make, and you can be creative and decorate for the season! ENJOY!
Ingredients
18 ounces sweetened shredded (flake) coconut (1 14 oz pkg plus an additional cup)
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large egg whites at room temperature
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Combine coconut, condensed milk, and vanilla in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites and salt on high speed until they form medium to firm peaks. I used a hand mixer for this post, and a stand mixer can be used.
Carefully fold egg whites into the coconut mixture.
Using a 1½ inch cookie scoop or 1 heaping teaspoon full, drop batter onto cookie sheets.
Bake for 25-30 minutes o until golden brown, switching the cookie sheets on the racks halfway through baking time.
Cool.
ENJOY!
