COCONUT MACAROONS

Make these easy coconut macaroons with just a handful of ingredients. These classic bakes are ideal for filling your biscuit tin or enjoying with a cup of tea

Provided by Liberty Mendez

Time 45m

Yield Makes 10-12

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 eggs, whites only
80g caster sugar
150g desiccated coconut
1 tsp vanilla paste
90g dark chocolate

Steps:

  • Whisk together the egg whites and caster sugar in a large bowl for 2-3 mins until light and frothy, and the sugar has dissolved. Add the coconut, a pinch of salt and the vanilla, then stir until combined. Leave to stand for 10 mins.
  • Heat the oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3½. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Scoop teaspoonfuls of the mixture and roll into compact balls, then arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 mins until golden.
  • Leave on the baking sheet to cool completely. Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn't touch the water, or in short 20-second bursts in the microwave. Tip the melted chocolate into a small bowl, then dip the bottom of each cooled macaroon into the chocolate and wipe off any excess. Arrange on a sheet of baking parchment, chocolate-side up, then put in the fridge for 20 mins, or until set. You can use any remaining melted chocolate to pipe in zigzags over the top, if you like, then leave to set.

Tips:

  • To ensure your macaroons have a chewy texture, use a combination of sweetened condensed milk and egg whites.
  • For a richer flavor, toast the coconut before adding it to the mixture.
  • If you don't have sweetened condensed milk, you can make your own by simmering one cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of butter in a saucepan until the sugar has dissolved.
  • To make your macaroons even more special, dip them in melted chocolate or sprinkle them with chopped nuts or dried fruit before baking.
  • Store your macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
