Description

These coconut macaroons are the easiest cookies you can make with just 3 ingredients. Made with almond meal, desiccated coconut, and condensed milk these take only 5 minutes to prep and 20 minutes to bake. Ideal for a last-minute tea party, cookie platter, or gift to friends.

Ingredients 

  • 14 oz (396 g) Condensed milk (1 can sweetened CS )
  • 2 ½ cup (200 g) Desiccated coconut unsweetened
  • ¼ cup (30 g) Almond meal (or coconut flour)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven at 170°C/ 340°F / Gas Mark 3.
    Pro tip - Make sure the oven is well preheated before you put the cookies in or they will spread too much.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt.
    Pro tip - Condensed milk already has vanilla extract so you can omit it. Alternatively, you can also add ¼ tsp coconut extract.
  • Followed by the dedicated coconut and almond meal (or coconut flour) - Combine well.
    Pro tip - At first the mixture will be wet but as the coconut absorbs moisture it will get drier so do not add more coconut or flour.
  • Using two spoons or a cookie scoop - drop small mounds on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • Bake for about 15 to 18 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges. I like a slight color on my cookies but these can be baked fairly white.
  • Cool on the baking tray then on a wire rack.
    Pro tip - The cookies may appear soft at first but they will dry and continue to cook on the hot baking tray.
  • Enjoy!
