As you can imagine, I love really easy recipes, especially ones that taste amazing. I have been making these for a while and thought it only fair that I’d share the best chocolate-dipped coconut macaroons ever, plus the secret to fluffy pancakes. With the help of Burnbrae Farms egg innovation products, I was able to save time in the kitchen so that me and my family could make the most of the beautiful summer weather! Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE-DIPPED MACAROON RECIPE

The easiest (and most delicious) macaroons you’ll ever eat. 

• Servings: 26 macaroons
• Prep Time: 20 Minutes
• Cook Time: 25 Minutes

Total Time: 45 Minutes

INGREDIENTS

• 1 14-oz bag sweetened flaked coconut,
• 7/8 cup sweetened condensed milk (7/8 cup = 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 tablespoons Burnbrae Farms Naturegg Simply Egg Whites
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 4 ounces milk chocolate

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Set two oven racks near the center of the oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a ‘Silplat’ baking sheet
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the coconut, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Set aside.
3. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the 4 tablespoons Burnbrae Farms Naturegg Simply Egg Whites and salt until stiff peaks form. 
4. Use a rubber spatula to fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture.
5. Using a mini ice cream scoop or two spoons, form heaping tablespoons of the mixture into mounds on the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 1 inch apart. 
6. Bake for 23 to 25 minutes, rotating the pans from top to bottom and front to back, until the tops and edges are golden. Let cool on the pans for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl at medium power, stopping and stirring at 30 second intervals, until just smooth. (make sure there’s no water in the bowl, or the chocolate will split)
8. Lick the spoon.
9. Dip the bottoms of the macaroons in the chocolate, letting any excess drip back into the bowl, and return to the lined baking sheets. 
10. Place the macaroons in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. The cookies keep well in an airtight container at room temperature for about a week.
