Ina's Coconut Macaroons image

This recipe comes from one of my many Barefoot Contessa cookbooks. I've tried many coconut macaroon recipes and this one is by far the best. For an extra special treat I have been known to dip the bottoms in bittersweet chocolate.

These macaroons are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. They're also a great gluten-free treat.
