Coconut Macaroons
Yesterday my friend celebrated her 20-12th birthday. I thought about getting her a $20 gift card from TJ Maxx, because she likes shopping at a variety of places and always finds the hidden treasures there.
Then, I considered buying her a CD for $9.99. Or some accessories for about $15. But I know she loves to eat my coconut macaroons and watching her savor those is priceless.
The recipe is rather simple so I decided to embellish the treats a bit with a couple of her favorite flavors- chocolate and lemon.
Ingredients
2 Egg Whites
2/3 Cup Sugar
3 oz. Flaked Coconut
1. Beat egg whites into a fluffly foam.
2. Slowly add sugar to the mix
3. Add coconut flakes and blend
4. Using a teaspoon measure out scoops and place onto a baking sheet for about 12-15 minutes in a 325 degree oven.
5. If you choose to embellish add toppings while macaroons are still warm and let them cool on wax paper.

…and I must say, the lemon macaroons made turning 20-12 that much easier. I can’t wait until I turn 20-12 again next year… Key Lime Macaroons, anyone?
