Coconut Macarons
Description
This Coconut Macarons recipe starts by blending sweetened condensed milk with vanilla and almond extracts, providing a rich, sweet base with distinct flavor notes. Flour, coconut flakes, and salt are mixed in to bind the ingredients and add texture.
The batter is chilled before scooping, which helps maintain shape during baking. Baking at 350°F produces a golden crust on top while keeping the centers soft and chewy, characteristic of macarons with coconut.
The coconut flakes create a slightly coarse texture that contrasts pleasantly with the creamy condensed milk sweetness. These macaroons can be served as dessert or a sweet snack, enjoyed for their nutty and tropical flavor.
Ingredients
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 2/3 cup flour
- 5 1/2 cups sweetened coconut flakes , 14 ounce bag
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, mix the extracts in with the condensed milk.
- Add the flour, coconut flakes, and salt and mix until well combined.
- Cover and refrigerate for one hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Use an ice cream scoop to scoop 18 macaroons onto parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Notes
- Use an ice cream scoop to form evenly sized macaroons for uniform baking.
- Chilling the batter before baking helps the macarons hold their shape.
- Click on times in the instructions (if supported) to start kitchen timers during baking.
