Coconut macaroons are incredibly gooey and chewy on the inside with crisp edges. They're delicately sweet, and brimming with rich coconut flavors.

Ingredients

  • 2 large egg whites
  • 3 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. 1

    Place the top oven rack in the center position and pre-heat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper or a Silpat® baking sheet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Using a hand mixer, briskly beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the honey, vanilla, coconut, and salt into the egg whites with a spatula until thoroughly combined. Do not overwork, but it may require a few folds for the ingredients to start to incorporate with one another.

  3. 3

    Scoop heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving plenty of space in between to prevent overcrowding.

  4. 4

    Transfer the baking sheet into the oven and bake until the cookies become golden brown on top and around the edges, around 12-14 minutes.

  5. 5

    Remove from oven and cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
