These Coconut macaroons are sweet, delish and eggless cookies prepared with just 4 ingredients. Yes sounds easy right? These cookies are light, crispy on the outside and chewy in the inside can be made in no time. These coconut macaroons are made with desiccated coconut and condensed milk which are 2 easily available ingredients in the pantry. If you are my follower/ reader for the longest time you will surely know my live for coconuts in desserts/ pastries and that’s why its here in the blog today. If you are a beginner in baking then this cookie can be your choice to try as it involves no techniques to get these right, all you need is mixing of the ingredients, shaping and baking. For the below recipe I used desiccated coconut powder instead of shredded coconut for better texture but you can use either of them and the cookies will taste yummy. I saved this recipe from a book few years back and made it after years and thought why not post it as I couldn’t post post any Christmas recipes this year as I was little busy. Hopefully I post lot of recipes for Christmas next year a month ahead. So let’s get to the making!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!
- 1. Coconut powder/ Desiccated coconut- 3 cups
- 2. Condensed milk- 1 ¼ cup
- 3. Vanilla syrup – 1 tsp (optional)
- 4. Cherries – 24 (halved)
- * 1 cup = 235 ml
- Preheat oven at 350F/ 180C. In a bowl add coconut powder, condensed milk and vanilla syrup. Mix well until it forms dough like consistency.
- Now take a tbsp of mixture in hand roll it into ball and press it gently between the palms of your hands. Arrange it the baking tray with parchment paper/ wax paper. Repeat till all the cookie dough is over.
- Now place cherries on top of each macaroon.
- Place the baking tray in the over and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until done. My macaroons got baked in 17 minutes. Make sure to remove the macaroons from oven on time as they will get burnt in the bottom.
- As soon as you remove the cookie from oven they will be soft after they cool down they will be crisp. Now place the cookies in a cooling rack and allow it cool down. When they are cooled it ready to relish. Store the remaining cookies in a air tight container.
