Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut – forms the base for these chewy macaroons.
- 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
