Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until you have medium-firm peaks. Mix in the honey, vanilla, salt and spices. Fold in coconut. If liquid is weeping and pooling at the bottom of the bowl, add one tablespoon of flour at a time until mixture holds together but still moist. You may not need the entire 1/4 cup.
- Form heaping mounds of about 2 tablespoons of the coconut mixture onto the prepared sheet pans, placing about 2 inches apart. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned on top and bottom. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. While the macaroons rest, melt the chocolate over a double boiled or in the microwave.
- One by one, dip the macaroons into the melted chocolate. Use a fork to gently lift the macaroons out of the chocolate and transfer to a sheet of wax paper or parchment paper. Once all the macaroons have been dipped, using a fork drizzle chocolate over the macaroons and finish with a sprinkling of maldon sea salt. Let the macaroons sit until the chocolate is set and enjoy!
COCONUT MACAROONS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Combine the coconut, condensed milk, and vanilla in a large bowl. Whip the egg whites and salt on high speed in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until they make medium-firm peaks. Carefully fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture. Drop the batter onto sheet pans lined with parchment paper using either a 1 3/4-inch diameter ice cream scoop, or 2 teaspoons. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and serve.
Tips:
- Toast the coconut flakes in a dry skillet before adding them to the macaroon mixture. This will bring out their flavor and make them more aromatic.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the macaroons tough.
- If you don't have a silicone baking mat, you can grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or parchment paper.
- Bake the macaroons until they are golden brown on the bottom. If they are still soft in the center, they need to be baked for a few minutes longer.
- Let the macaroons cool completely before dipping them in chocolate. If you dip them while they are still warm, the chocolate will melt and run off.
Conclusion:
These coconut chai macaroons are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for any occasion, and they are sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat to make, give these coconut chai macaroons a try. You won't be disappointed!
