Ingredients
- 3 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 0.75 cups sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large egg whites
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is evenly coated and well-combined.
Step 3
In a separate clean, dry bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the egg whites with the salt until stiff peaks form.
Step 4
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the coconut mixture in two additions. Take care not to deflate the egg whites as you fold.
Step 5
Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 6
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the edges are slightly crispy.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and allow the macaroons to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Store cooled macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
