How to Make Coconut Macaroons
My easy, no-fail recipe is actually very simple! This cookie recipe requires just 6 ingredients, including the chocolate. They’re made with shredded coconut flakes and fluffy egg whites, beaten to stiff peak stage. The egg whites give these cookies their volume! The coconut cookies are sweetened with sweetened condensed milk, which gives them that slightly chewy texture once they’re baked. Once the macaroons are cooled, I like to dip them into melted chocolate.
The chocolate coats the cookies, making them not only look incredible, but also makes them even more delicious! You can also try dipping the bottom of the cookies into chocolate, then drizzle the top with more melted chocolate. If you haven’t tried chocolate coconut macaroons, what are you waiting for? You can also enjoy these without chocolate, but I highly recommend adding it! Who doesn’t love chocolate?!

This recipe was so perfect! normally recipes just have egg whites, but the condensed milk definitely made it so much better! I loved this recipe!
Make bigger ones if you love the chew of coconut, smaller or just flatter ones for the people who like the crisp outer bits like I do
I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe! 🙂
I’m a huge fan of coconut macaroons but never tried baking them! dipping them in chocolate sounds like an amazing idea, I really want some right now 🙂

Thanks for the recipe…..these cookies look so delicious.
Can you make some more Ukrainian recipes………I miss my Mom’s and family recipes. I was going to go to Kiev for the first time to visit some relatives whom I’ve never met and thought maybe I can get some recipes that my Grandma grew up with….but with the issues going on there I’m afraid I won’t go this year.
Thanks…
I hope you get the chance to go! 🙂 I have grandparents in Ukraine, too. If you go under cuisines in my recipes, I have a whole section of Eastern European recipes: cakes, cookies, main dishes.
I have sweetened coconut flakes. Will that work, or will the macaroons be too sweet?
It will work with sweetened coconut flakes but the cookies will be sweeter. They will still taste great! I don’t like mine too sweet but everyone has their preferences 🙂
Been wanting to try these bad boys! And finally I did! Turned out amazing!!!
Thank you for the recipe!
So glad you enjoyed my recipe! They are delightful!
Hello Tatyana, I was just wondering how long can you store them for?
These should last for at least a week, as long as you store them in an airtight container 🙂
