Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar (lightly packed)
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups Quick oats
- 0.75 cup Shredded sweetened coconut
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, milk, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the butter melts and the sugars dissolve completely, forming a smooth mixture.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and let it bubble for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the pure vanilla extract.
Add the quick oats and shredded sweetened coconut to the saucepan. Stir thoroughly until evenly combined and the oats and coconut are fully coated in the chocolate mixture.
Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Let the macaroons cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place them in the fridge for quicker setting.
Once firm, remove the macaroons from the parchment paper and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
