Chocolate Coconut Rudolph Macaroons
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line baking sheets with waxed paper.

  2. 2

    Beat the egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add the sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Lift the beater or whisk straight up; the egg whites should hold sharp peaks.

  3. 3

    Beat the cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt into the egg white mixture until combined; fold in the coconut. Drop spoonfuls of the coconut mixture onto the prepared baking sheets.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven until the coconut begins to brown, about 20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Press a cherry half onto the top of each macaroon; move the cookies to a cooling rack.
