Hi, all! Hope you are all doing well and getting through the chaos of the Coronavirus! I figure, if we have to stay home, might as well bake some yummy treats and eat them! This recipe for Coconut Macaroons is super easy and makes a small enough batch that you can enjoy them between two people. Here are the ingredients:

• 1 1/3 cups sweetened shredded coconut
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 2 large egg whites, room temperature
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• Melted semi-sweet chocolate (optional)

Preheat the oven to 325F. In a small bowl, mix the coconut, sugar, flour, and salt together.

Add the egg whites and vanilla, and mix until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Drop tablespoon-sized balls onto a greased, or baking mat-lined, baking sheet.

Bake 18-20 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown on top. Cool on a wire rack.

When the cookies are cool, drizzle with melted chocolate if you want!

And that’s it! Super simple, super quick, and super tasty. Happy baking, and stay safe!
