Coconut Macaroons
I made some cream puffs, eclairs and pastry swans for a neighborhood picnic on Saturday. Making the vanilla pastry cream uses a lot of egg yolks; which leaves a lot of egg whites to find a use for. Not wanting to waste them I decided to make some coconut macaroons. These very easy cookies are a great use of the egg whites and disappeared from the tray at the picnic in record time.
So if you are looking for some great cookies and happen to have some egg whites leftover from another recipe; make these and make everyone a little happier.

- oz
- coconut, sweetened, shredded
- 14
- oz

large
egg, whites
1
tsp
vanilla
0.25
tsp

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.
I also made some macaroon jam tarts with the egg whites. These are meringue pillows with jam between two cookies. The jam tart recipe and more are at emealsforyou.com.
