VIDEO: How to Make Coconut Macaroons for Passover

Did we mention how easy these chocolate-drizzled treats are to prepare?

Passover desserts can be a real bummer. But coconut macaroons, especially when drizzled with dark chocolate, are moist, chewy and absolutely delicious. Did we mention how easy they are to make? No special equipment – just a bowl, spoon and baking sheet.

Ingredients

  • 2 large egg whites
  • 2 cups sweetened, shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup whole almonds, chopped
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • melted dark chocolate for drizzling or dipping (optional)
  • salted caramel sauce for drizzling (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Combine egg whites, coconut and almonds. Add sugar, vanilla and salt. Using a cookie scoop, portion out cookies onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet around 2 inches apart.
  3. Bake until cookies are set and edges begin to crisp, around 15 minutes.
  4. Allow to cool completely. Dip in melted dark chocolate, or drizzle with chocolate and caramel on top if desired.
