COCONUT MACAROONS
If you are a coconut lover, you'll want to make these moist, chewy macaroons all the time. Crisp on the outside and pillowy within, they take only a few minutes to put together and keep extremely well. Their perfect texture comes from fluffy sweetened coconut for softness and crunchier unsweetened coconut for more chewiness. Coconut flour, ubiquitous now because of gluten-free baking, is very absorbent and works beautifully to absorb the extra liquid that would otherwise run out of the macaroon, but matzo cake meal can be used during Passover and all-purpose flour any other time of year. Just double check that whatever you use is kosher for Passover.

Steps:
- Position racks in the top and bottom of the oven and heat oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites, salt and sugar until creamy, thick and white. Whisk in 1 tablespoon of the oil and the vanilla.
- Fold in the flaked and shredded coconut and the flour, mixing well so the coconut is evenly moistened. At this point, the macaroons can be baked, but you can also refrigerate the mixture in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- Use a small 1-ounce cookie scoop to portion the coconut mixture (about 2 tablespoons per macaroon) and squeeze together in a ball. Space a few inches apart on the prepared sheets and rough up the texture a little with your fingers.
- Bake, switching the pans from back to front and top to bottom, until golden on the bottom and toasty all over, 16 to 21 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer the macaroons to a cooling rack close together. Set the rack over one of the baking sheets (keep the parchment on) to catch chocolate drips during drizzling. Cool the macaroons completely.
- Melt the chocolate with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil in a small saucepan over low heat and stir well. Drizzle the macaroons with the chocolate. Let the chocolate set a little in a cool place or in the refrigerator before topping with flaky salt. The macaroons can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 1 month.

Steps:
- Add all ingredients, except coconut flakes and honey, in a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Pour honey onto a plate.
- Lay out coconut on a plate.
- Dip the rims of chilled glasses into honey and roll in coconut.
- Shake and pour into chilled martini glasses to serve.
- NOTE: For a non-alcoholic version, omit the vodka and the banana Schnapps and substitute the ice with 1 banana. Puree the mixture in a blender.
Tips:
- Use fresh limes for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but the flavor will not be as good.
- Grate the lime zest finely. This will help to release the flavor of the lime.
- Use unsweetened coconut flakes. Sweetened coconut flakes will make the macaroons too sweet.
- Toast the coconut flakes before using them. This will help to bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Chill the macaroon dough before baking. This will help to prevent the macaroons from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the macaroons until they are golden brown. The macaroons should be firm to the touch when they are done baking.
- Let the macaroons cool completely before serving. The macaroons will be easier to handle and will taste better if they are allowed to cool completely.
Conclusion:
Lime in the Coconut Macaroons are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. These macaroons are made with a combination of lime zest, coconut flakes, and egg whites, and they are then baked until they are golden brown.
