Coconut Macaroons Passover Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper (or coat generously with nonstick cooking spray).
• In a large bowl, whisk together egg whites, sugar, and salt until frothy. With a fork, stir in coconut until moistened.
• Drop mixture by packed level tablespoons onto prepared sheet (cookies will not spread). Bake until lightly golden, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease 2 baking sheets and dust with cake meal, knocking off any excess.
• Make meringue:
• Cook sugar and water in a small heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Boil syrup, without stirring, until it reaches soft-ball stage (or registers 238°F on a candy thermometer).
• While syrup boils, beat whites in standing mixer on low speed until stiff peaks form. Gradually pour hot syrup in a thin stream down side of bowl into whites, beating constantly on high speed. (Be careful not to let syrup touch beaters when pouring, or it will spatter and harden.) Continue to beat until meringue is room temperature.
• Stir in coconut and spoon rounded teaspoons of meringue into mounds about 1 inch apart on baking sheets. Shape mounds into pyramids with wet fingertips.
• Bake macaroons 1 sheet at a time in middle of oven 12 minutes, or until just firm enough to be removed from baking sheet without losing their shape. Carefully transfer to a rack to cool. (Macaroons will harden as they cool.)

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:

• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Mix first 4 ingredients in large bowl. Stir in egg whites and almond extract until well blended.
• Drop teaspoonfuls of dough, 2 inches apart, onto lightly greased baking sheets. Press almond into center of each cookie.
• Bake 20 min. or until edges are golden brown. Immediately remove from baking sheets. Cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F Cover 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Mix the coconut, matzoh cake meal, and 1 cup of the sugar together in a bowl.
• Add the eggs and egg white and mix with your fingers until well blended.
• Gently shape about two tablespoons of the dough into a pyramid and set on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
• Bake 25 minutes, cool.
• In a saucepan melt the chocolate with the water and remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Bring to a boil then simmer slowly for a few minutes until the mixture starts to thicken.
• Let the chocolate cool slightly. Holding a macaroon with 2 fingers, dip half the cookie in chocolate so that it is half-black and half-white.
• Dry for a few minutes, tilted over a dish and place on wax paper. Repeat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, whisk together egg whites, sugar, almond extract (if using), and salt until frothy. Add coconut and apricots; mix to combine.
• Using your hands, shape mixture into mounds, each equal to 2 level tablespoons; place 1/2 inch apart on prepared baking sheet (macaroons will not spread).
• Bake until lightly golden, 35 to 40 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through. Transfer macaroons to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F Lightly grease a baking sheet, or line with parchment.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the coconut, coconut cream, salt, and coconut flavor, stirring till thoroughly combined.
• Add the coconut milk powder, stirring to combine.
• Drop the sticky mixture in ping pong-sized balls (about 1 1/2") onto the prepared baking sheets. It helps to use a tablespoon cookie scoop or small ice cream scoop here.
• For best results, pack the coconut mixture into the scoop; each ball should weigh about 1 ounce.
• You can space the balls fairly close together on the baking sheet; they only need about 3/4" to 1" between them.
• Bake the macaroons for about 10 minutes; they won't brown. You may see the merest hint of brown on top.
• Remove from the oven, and cool completely on the baking sheet.
• To make the coating, heat the chocolate chips, butter, and corn syrup until the chips are very soft. A microwave oven works well, as does a saucepan set over very low heat.
• Dip half of each cooled macaroon into the chocolate.
• Set the macaroons back on the baking sheet, and allow the chocolate to set completely before serving.
• To store, place in one layer in a closed container.
• They'll keep for 2 or 3 days, but will gradually become less moist as they sit.
