Follow this recipe to make chewy coconut macaroons with a crispy exterior, finished with a simple dark chocolate drizzle.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • 4 cups shredded, sweetened coconut flakes
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 ounces dark chocolate, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the sweetened condensed milk, shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and salt until fully combined. Do not overmix.
  3. In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the coconut mixture until just incorporated. This keeps the macaroons light.
  4. Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small mounds. You can lightly shape them into domes if desired.
  5. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the edges and tops are golden brown.
  6. Remove the macaroons from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet before moving them.
  7. Prepare the drizzle: Place the chopped dark chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
  8. Transfer the melted chocolate to a small zip-top bag or a piping bag fitted with a small round tip. Snip a very small corner off the bag.
  9. Drizzle the melted chocolate back and forth over the cooled macaroons.
  10. Allow the chocolate to set completely before serving or storing.

Notes

  • For a crispier exterior, lightly toast the coconut flakes before mixing them into the batter.
  • If you prefer dipping over drizzling, dip the bottom half of each cooled macaroon into the melted chocolate and set them on parchment paper to set.
  • Store macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
