Snowy Coconut Macaroons

Follow these simple steps to create your own delicious Snowy Coconut Macaroons.

1. Step 1: Preheat the oven

   Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Step 2: Combine ingredients

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt. Mix until well combined.

3. Step 3: Fold in egg whites

   In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture until just combined.

4. Step 4: Scoop onto baking sheet

   Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

5. Step 5: Bake until golden

   Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

6. Step 6: Cool on wire rack

   Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

7. Step 7: Optional chocolate drizzle

   If desired, melt chocolate chips and drizzle over the cooled macaroons for an extra touch of sweetness.
