Ingredients
- 1 oz bag sweetened, flaked coconut this is slightly more than 5 and 1/2 cups coconut
- 1 oz can sweetened condensed milk you will leave about 2 tbsp in the can
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 egg whites
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
- Combine *almost* the entire can of sweetened condensed milk (leave about 2 tablespoons in the can) with coconut. Stir to combine. Add in vanilla and stir to combine. Set aside.
- Next, in a separate bowl combine egg whites and salt and beat until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold egg whites into coconut mixture.
- Then scoop or spoon mixture, about two tablespoons, onto baking sheets that are covered with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Finally, bake for approximately 25 minutes or until starting to turn golden brown. Remove from oven, then immediately remove cookies from baking sheet and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- You do not need to specifically measure the sweetened condensed milk, just pour most of it into your bowl, leaving approximately 2 TBSP in the can.
- Make sure to use a silicone baking mat (highly recommended) or if you don't have silicone baking mats, use parchment paper (sprayed with non-stick cooking spray) - the sweetened condensed milk makes these quite sticky! Remove cookies from the baking sheets immediately after they come out the oven.
- Store covered, best eaten within 3-4 days.
