Coconut Macaroons...

Not only is 'macaroon' fun to say,
they're also fun to make. -Me.

Ingredients: 7 oz coconut, 2/3 cup sugar, 1/3 cup flour, 1/4 tsp salt, 3 egg whites, 1/2 tsp vanilla, 2 oz semi-sweet chocolate

The How-To: 
1) preheat oven to 325*F, flour the cookie sheet (or use parchment paper).
2) mix: coconut, sugar, flour & salt
3) with a wooden spoon, stir in: egg whites & vanilla
4) by rounded spoonfuls, put coconut mixture on cookie tray 2 in apart
5) bake for 20-25 minutes
6) transfer to wire rack to cool

Cocoa drizzle:
1) in a saucepan, melt the 2 oz of cocoa until melted & smooth
2) dip 1/2 a cookie, or drizzle on top!

Makes about 30 cookies :)



The mixture!


Teddy chewed up our wooden spoon, so good ol' scraper had to do.


The rounded spoonfuls...


almost looks like a countryside with hay stacks...


Coolin' on the wire racks...


2 cubes of the Baker's cocoa = 2 oz


I felt like Jackson Pollock drizzling the cocoa on the macaroons... so I signed my artwork

ps-listening to Emilie Mover will make baking even more enjoyable.
