Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl or electric mixer, beat or whisk egg whites, sugar, vanilla, and almond extract. Mix on a medium-high speed until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is light and foamy. You don't want to whip it to stiff peaks, just until it is foamy.
- Fold in coconut until evenly blended.
- Scoop 2-3 tablespoons of the coconut mixture with a spoon or cookie scoop onto prepared baking sheets lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Place cookies about 2 inches apart.
- Bake 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool completely on a wire rack.
Notes
- Topping Variation:
- *You can choose to melt your chocolate and/or caramel in a double boiler or a microwave-safe bowl in your microwave.
- Store in airtight container for 3 days at room temperature, or 5 days in the refrigerator.
- Drizzle the macaroon in chocolate, or try dipping the bottom in chocolate instead.
- Drizzle melted caramel on the little mounds for a different flavor.
- Mix it up! Drizzle both melted caramel and chocolate for layers of flavor explosion!
- Store in airtight container for 3 days at room temperature, or 5 days in the refrigerator.
