Serving Size: 12

Cooking Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 Large egg whites
• 1 Pinch salt, to taste
• 0.5 Cups white sugar
• 2 Cups sweetened flaked coconut
• 0.5 Teaspoons (tsp) almond extract
• 0.5 Cups dark chocolate chips, melted

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
2. In a small glass, metal, or ceramic bowl, beat the egg whites and salt together using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat at high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form.
3. Gently fold in the almond extract and sweetened flaked coconut into the egg white mixture, ensuring the coconut is evenly coated.
4. Using a teaspoon, drop mounds of the coconut mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes, or until the edges of the macaroons are a light golden brown.
6. Remove from the oven and let the macaroons cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Once cooled, drizzle the melted dark chocolate over the macaroons for an added touch of decadence. Allow the chocolate to set before serving.
