COCONUT MACAROONS

Coconut Macaroons are deceptively easy to make and are genuinely so delicious. They are great to make with your kids too as the process is simple but fun, and a cheeky lick of the spoon from the condensed milk is always appreciated!

Ingredients

2 Egg whites
14 ounces Shredded coconut sweetened
1 cup Condensed milk sweetened
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon Almond extract
¼ teaspoon Salt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F / 160°C.
In a large bowl, whip the egg whites until the form stiff peaks. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix together the coconut, condensed milk, vanilla, almond extract and salt. Stir well.
Fold the whipped egg whites into the coconut mix gently, trying to keep as much air in the whites as possible.
Scoop the batter into heaping tablespoon sized mounds on to a parchment lined sheet tray. Make sure the cookies are about 2 inches apart on the tray.
Bake the cookies for 25 minutes or until the bottom and edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool.
