Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large egg whites
½ cup white sugar
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 (7 ounce) package toasted flake coconut
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Gradually add the sugar, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Add the salt and lime juice and continue beating until the egg whites form a sharp peak that holds its shape when you lift your beater or whisk. Gently folk the coconut and cocoa powder into the mixture.
  • Drop mixture by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake until golden brown and firm to the touch, about 20 minutes. Cool on the pans on wire racks. Store in an airtight container.

Tips:

- To achieve the perfect texture for your cocoa macaroon muffins, make sure to whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a light and fluffy muffin. - For a richer chocolate flavor, use high-quality cocoa powder. Look for a cocoa powder that is labeled "unsweetened" or "natural." - If you don't have sweetened condensed milk on hand, you can make your own by simmering one cup of milk with one cup of sugar until the mixture has thickened and reduced by about half. - To prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan, grease the muffin cups or line them with paper liners. - For a moist and flavorful muffin, fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full of batter. - Bake the muffins at 350°F (175°C) for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. - For a crispy meringue topping, increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 5 minutes of baking.

Conclusion:

Cocoa macaroon muffins are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dessert. With their moist chocolatey cake, sweet meringue topping, and chewy coconut center, these muffins are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
