Pongaroons Macaroon Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Combine the coconut, condensed milk, and vanilla in a large bowl. Whip the egg whites and salt on high speed in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until they make medium-firm peaks. Carefully fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture. Drop the batter onto sheet pans lined with parchment paper using either a 1 3/4-inch diameter ice cream scoop, or 2 teaspoons. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and serve.

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:

• In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy.
• Keep beating and slowly add sugar until stiff peaks form.
• Sift powdered sugar, cookie crumbs, almond flour, and cocoa powder over the egg whites.
• Fold the dry mixture into the egg whites completely, but make sure to not overmix or the macarons will not rise.
• Once the batter reaches a lava-like consistency, add the food coloring. Mix until just combined, without over mixing.
• Preheat oven to 285ºF (140ºC).
• Place the mixture into a piping bag or zip-top bag. Cut of the tip to pipe.
• Pipe 1½-inch (4 cm) dollops onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Tip: take a little batter to "glue" down the edges of the parchment paper so it stays put.
• Let the cookies rest at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour, until they are no longer wet to the touch and a skin forms on top.
• While resting, make the filling by mixing the butter, powdered sugar, cookie cream filling, vanilla, and milk in a bowl until smooth.
• Transfer to a piping bag and set aside until ready to fill.
• When the cookies are dry to the touch, bake for 15-18 minutes until they have risen.
• Let rest for 10 minutes before filling.
• To fill, pipe about about a tablespoon of the buttercream onto one macaron and place another on top.
• Macarons are best kept refrigerated until serving.
• Enjoy!
