Ingredients
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 5 1/2 cups flaked coconut
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
-
Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your cookie sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
-
Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, flaked coconut, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
-
Combine with Wet Ingredients: Add in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Use your hands to blend the mixture thoroughly until it holds together.
👐 Using your hands may feel messy, but it's the best way to ensure everything is well combined.
-
Shape the Cookies: Use an ice cream scoop or your hands to form the dough into golf ball-sized mounds. Place them on the prepared cookie sheets, leaving space between each one as they will spread slightly.
-
Bake: Place the cookie sheets in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the coconut is golden brown and toasted.
-
Cool and Enjoy: Once baked, let them cool completely on the sheets. They will firm up as they cool!
☀️ For a fun twist, consider drizzling melted chocolate over the cooled macaroons for a beautiful presentation and added flavor!
Variations
- Chocolate-Dipped Macaroons: Melt some chocolate and dip the bottoms of the cooled cookies for a sweet contrast.
- Lemon Zest: Add 1 teaspoon of lemon zest to the mixture for a citrusy twist.
- Mini Macaroons: Use a smaller scoop to create mini versions for bite-sized treats, perfect for parties!
Enjoy these tropical delights and share them with friends and family for smiles all around! 🌟🥥
