3 large egg whites
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups flaked sweetened coconut
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Pre-heat oven to 325 F. Lightly grease baking sheets or line them with parchment paper. Beat egg whites with electric mixer at high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, a little bit at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla and salt. Continue beating until whites form stiff glossy peaks. Gently fold in the coconut and flour. Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets. Or, using a pastry bag and a large fluted pastry tube, pipe cookies onto baking sheet. Bake about 20 minutes or until golden. Carefully remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely.

These stuck SO bad to the baking sheet! I have made other macaroon recipes in the past and never had this problem! They do taste good though (even in broken pieces!) 1 star

Would make this again.
tastes great but need to cut down the baking time from 20 mins. to 15 mins. as they were a bit hard. 5 stars

Would make this again.
I melt chocolate and dip 1/2 the cookie in chocolate. I do some (not all)like this, it looks pretty on the plate, especially if you brng them to a cookie swap. These are easy, but definately double the recipe or you'll be making them alll day. 5 stars

Absolutely delicious and so easy to make. I'll definitely make this one again.
I tried piping the dough, but that didn't work at all, the coconut just clogged up the tip. Spooning the dough onto the pan worked fine. 5 stars
