Recipe Ingredients:
- 1 1/3 cups blanched almonds (8 ounces)
- 3 large egg whites
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted and cooled to room temperature
- 7 ounces sweetened shredded coconut
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2. Grind the almonds in a food processor, and set aside. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff. Alternately fold in the sugar and ground almonds; then gently fold in the melted chocolate and the coconut. Drop from a teaspoon onto the lined cookie sheets, leaving 1/2 inch between macaroons. Bake 20 minutes.
