Ingredients
- 4 large egg whites
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 4 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 12 oz shredded sweetened coconut
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200 degrees F (93 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer, or in a large bowl if you are using hand mixers, add the egg whites. Beat at medium speed until you have frothy, medium peaks.
- Add the granulated sugar and continue beating at medium speed. Increase the speed to medium-high until stiff peaks form.
- Add the vanilla extract and sift your cocoa into the bowl.
- Fold in the cocoa and vanilla until evenly distributed throughout the macaroon batter.
- Add the shredded sweetened coconut and fold into the chocolate macaroon batter.
- Portion the chocolate macaroons onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Use two spoons to place roughly 2-inch portions of the batter with spacing approximately 2 inches apart.
- Bake the chocolate macaroons at 200 degrees F (93 degrees C) for 3 hours. The cookies should be firm on the outside and lift easily and intact from the parchment paper.
