Golden Macaroons


First of all. So sorry for not posting for a while! My mom baked cookies for an engagement party today. So here is the first one of many to come this week!!

Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups sweetened flaked coconut
2 cups unsweetened finely shredded coconut
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 egg whites
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon vanilla

Recipe:
In a large bowl combine flaked coconut & shredded coconut. ( Flaked coconut should be broken into separate flakes with only a few very small clumps.)
In a medium bowl combine sugar, flour, and salt. Add egg whites, honey, and vanilla; whisk until smooth. Pour sugar mixture over coconut mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon, then use your hands to mix well. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Drop batter by rounded tablespoons 2 inches apart onto prepared cookie sheet. Gently pinch mounds into pyramid shapes.
Bake in preheated oven for 17 to 19 minutes or until golden brown.
Immediately transfer to wire rack; cool.
Makes about 40 cookies.

*Tip: Use real vanilla extract, not imitation vanilla, for the best flavor in these guys!

Enjoy!

Love,
Us.
