COCONUT MACAROON ICE CREAM (BISCUIT TORTONI)



Coconut Macaroon Ice Cream (Biscuit Tortoni) image

I'm not sure whether this is "real" Biscuit Tortoni, but if you like coconut macaroons (and sinfully rich desserts), you should love this. When we were kids, my sister and I got to choose what my mother cooked for dinner on our birthdays. Actually, of course, she could have just cooked the dinners without asking, because we always asked for our favorite foods. So on my birthday, dessert was always Coconut Macaroon Ice Cream. BTW the prep time figure obviously doesn't count the overnight freezing time.

CHOCOLATE-DIPPED COCONUT MACAROONS



Chocolate-Dipped Coconut Macaroons image

Categories     Chocolate     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Christmas     Coconut     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 30 macaroons

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large eggs whites
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups sweetened flaked coconut
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
8 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped

Steps:

  • In a heavy saucepan stir together the egg whites, the sugar, the salt, the vanilla, and the coconut, sift in the flour, and stir the mixture until it is combined well. Cook the mixture over moderate heat, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes, increase the heat to moderately high, and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, for 3 to 5 minutes more, or until it is thickened and begins to pull away from the bottom and side of the pan. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, let it cool slightly, and chill it, its surface covered with plastic wrap, until it is just cold. Drop heaping teaspoons of the dough 2 inches apart onto buttered baking sheets and bake the macaroons in batches in the middle of a preheated 300°F. oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are pale golden. Transfer the macaroons to a rack and let them cool.
  • In a small metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water melt the chocolate, stirring until it is smooth, remove the bowl from the heat, and dip the macaroons, 1 at a time, into the chocolate, coating them halfway and letting any excess drip off. Transfer the macaroons as they are dipped to a foil-lined tray and chill them for 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until the chocolate is set. The macaroons keep, chilled and separated by layers of wax paper, in an airtight container for 3 days. (If the macaroons are made in advance, let them stand at room temperature for 20 minutes before serving.)

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality chocolate and coconut.
  • Be sure to toast the coconut before using it. This will bring out its flavor and aroma.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the coconut by hand. Just be sure to chop it very finely.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the doneness of the sugar syrup by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the syrup forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • Be careful not to overbeat the egg whites. If you overbeat them, they will become dry and crumbly.
  • Fold the egg whites into the sugar syrup mixture gently. If you mix too vigorously, you will deflate the egg whites and the ice cream will be less fluffy.
  • Freeze the ice cream for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow it to firm up and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

This chocolate coconut macaroon ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you are looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give this ice cream a try. You won't be disappointed!
