Description

These easy, chewy Two-Ingredient Coconut Macaroons are perfect for quick baking. With just sweetened shredded coconut and condensed milk, you’ll have a sweet, coconutty treat in no time! Perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth or last-minute holiday baking


Ingredients

Scale
  1. 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut – forms the base for these chewy macaroons.
  2. 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk – adds sweetness and helps bind the coconut together.

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  • Mix the Ingredients:
    In a medium bowl, combine the shredded coconut and sweetened condensed milk. Stir until the coconut is thoroughly coated and the mixture is sticky and holds together.
  • Shape the Macaroons:
    Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture at a time. Press and shape each scoop into a small mound or ball with your hands, then place them on the prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake:
    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops and edges of the macaroons are golden brown.
  • Cool and Serve:
    Allow the macaroons to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • Optional Chocolate Drizzle: For extra flair, drizzle or dip the macaroons in melted chocolate once cooled
