Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 1/2 cups (about 3 ounces) unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine sugar, coconut, egg whites, chocolate chunks, vanilla, and salt. Use your hands to mix well, completely combining ingredients.

Dampen hands with cold water. Form 1 1/2 tablespoons of mixture into a loose haystack shape, and place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mixture, placing macaroons about 1 inch apart.

Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove baking sheet from oven to a wire rack, and let macaroons cool slightly on baking sheet. These are best served warm from the oven, but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days; leave in a warm place for 1 hour before serving to allow chocolate to soften.

                Love this and make it every Passover. Use good quality chocolate chips like Gghirardellis and real vanilla. THANKS MARTHA!

                This is the most wonderful recipe and I make these delicious macaroons every Passover. Make sure you DO not use Nestles chocolate chips. Try a better quality like Ghirardelli ( which are Trader Joes packaged) I get the unsweetened coconut at Sprouts. Thanks Martha!

                Look for unsweetened coconut in the freezer section of your grocery store.  In my local stores, it is with the international freezer section (one brand that makes it is Goya).  You won't usually find in in the baking section.

                I use sweetened coconut, and just add less sugar. I believe the last time I made these, I added half as much. 
                I never beat the egg whites, just stir them in.

                Do the egg whites not need to be beaten? I got unsweetened coconut in a health food store.

                I would think you could use sweetened coconut, mego; the macaroons will just be a little sweeter. It is sometimes hard to find unsweetened coconut in a grocery store. Or you could be a real Martha and buy a whole coconut and shred your own!!! (Just kidding--but I'm surprised that's not in the instructions!)

                Do you women have to be so nasty sounding when giving advice? Mammag just didn't read it carefully. Now she knows. Good luck to all and thank all for the hints.

                My mother used to make macaroons when I was a child. She used an egg cup to shape them, rather than using her hands to make mounds.

                These are the most incredible macaroons. They are a hit ever year at our family Passover Seder.  I make the chocolate one and the plain. They freeze well!
                Enjoy
