Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Sweetened shredded coconut
- 0.75 cups Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges of the macaroons are golden brown.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the macaroons to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store leftover macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
