Choconut Macaroons Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or grease lightly.
• In a medium bowl, blend together the sugar and almond paste using your fingers until the paste is completely worked into the sugar. Stir in the coconut and chocolate chips. In a clean dry glass or metal bowl, Whip egg whites and cream of tartar to stiff peaks. Fold half of the egg whites into the coconut mixture to lighten the batter. Gently fold in the remaining whites, being careful not to deflate. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until tops are lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for a few minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Whisk together the egg whites and caster sugar in a large bowl for 2-3 mins until light and frothy, and the sugar has dissolved. Add the coconut, a pinch of salt and the vanilla, then stir until combined. Leave to stand for 10 mins.
• Heat the oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3½. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Scoop teaspoonfuls of the mixture and roll into compact balls, then arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 mins until golden.
• Leave on the baking sheet to cool completely. Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn't touch the water, or in short 20-second bursts in the microwave. Tip the melted chocolate into a small bowl, then dip the bottom of each cooled macaroon into the chocolate and wipe off any excess. Arrange on a sheet of baking parchment, chocolate-side up, then put in the fridge for 20 mins, or until set. You can use any remaining melted chocolate to pipe in zigzags over the top, if you like, then leave to set.

Steps:

• Before starting to create the mix, I would suggest (i.e. It is optional) to take an empty bowl (metal would be the best) and a wire whisk (or whisk attachment for an electric whisk) and put them in the freezer for about an hour.
• Take your kitchen utensils out of the freezer and drop the two egg whites into the bowl. If you have an electric whisk set it on high and and whisk the eggs until they form medium peaks.
• In another bowl mix the coconut, condensed milk and vanilla extract. Transfer the egg whites from the other bowl into the coconut mixture by folding the egg whites into it.
• Get some baking pans and line them with wax paper. Drop the mixture onto the sheet. The amount of each dropping should be about an ice cream scoop or about two tablespoons.
• At one point you should have set your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit... Once your oven is heated up put your pans in the oven and bake the macaroons for about 25 to 30 minutes (or just look at them and wait until they are golden brown (not dark tarnished gold brown but shiny gold brown)). When removing the macaroons the wax paper may get a little stuck to it because they are so sticky... The best way to try to avoid this is removing them while hey are hot.
• Optional Steps Follow.
• After the macaroons have cooled you can dip them in chocolate if you would like. To do so put a bunch of chocolate chips (whichever chocolate you prefer, I prefer milk chocolate) and put them into a microwave safe bowl and put the bowl into the microwave until the chocolate chips have melted and stir.
• Take one macaroon at a time and dip them in chocolate as much as you like. Put the macaroons on a plate (I would suggest having refrigerated the plate first) and put them in the fridge for about an hour or two and you will have delicious chocolate covered macaroons :).

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Combine coconut, sugar, flour and salt in large bowl. Stir in egg whites and extract until blended.
• Drop coconut mixture into 36 mounds, 2 inches apart, onto greased and lightly floured baking sheets, using about 1 Tbsp. coconut mixture for each.
• Bake 20 min. or until edges are golden brown. Immediately remove from baking sheets to wire racks; cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 160C/fan.
• Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper and then the rice paper
• Mix the dessicated coconut, sugar, flour, salt, vanilla extract and egg whites togther in a bowl. The mixture should be 'gloopy' and sticky.
• Spoon the mixture into rounded 'dollops' onto the rice paper and cook in the oven, on the middle shelf, for 14-16 minutes until the macaroons are lightly golden brown. Allow to cool.
• Melt the dark chocolate over a bain-marie or in the microwave, then drizzle over the macaroons.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the coconut, sugar, flour and salt. Add egg whites and vanilla; mix well., Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 325° for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, coconut and salt. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla using your hands until well blended. Use an ice cream scoop to drop dough onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about golf ball size.
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until coconut is toasted.

Steps:

• Position racks in the top and bottom of the oven and heat oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites, salt and sugar until creamy, thick and white. Whisk in 1 tablespoon of the oil and the vanilla.
• Fold in the flaked and shredded coconut and the flour, mixing well so the coconut is evenly moistened. At this point, the macaroons can be baked, but you can also refrigerate the mixture in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
• Use a small 1-ounce cookie scoop to portion the coconut mixture (about 2 tablespoons per macaroon) and squeeze together in a ball. Space a few inches apart on the prepared sheets and rough up the texture a little with your fingers.
• Bake, switching the pans from back to front and top to bottom, until golden on the bottom and toasty all over, 16 to 21 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer the macaroons to a cooling rack close together. Set the rack over one of the baking sheets (keep the parchment on) to catch chocolate drips during drizzling. Cool the macaroons completely.
• Melt the chocolate with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil in a small saucepan over low heat and stir well. Drizzle the macaroons with the chocolate. Let the chocolate set a little in a cool place or in the refrigerator before topping with flaky salt. The macaroons can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk the egg whites, sugar, salt and vanilla in a large bowl until combined; fold in the coconut.
• Scoop heaping tablespoonfuls of the coconut mixture about 1 inch apart onto the baking sheet. Use your fingers to form into pyramids. Bake until golden brown around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
