Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups shredded coconut Sweetened or unsweetened based on preference.
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until well incorporated.
  3. Form the mixture into small mounds, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden, keeping an eye on them.
  5. Let the macaroons cool completely on the baking sheet.
  6. Melt the semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  7. Dip the bottoms of the cooled macaroons into the melted chocolate and place them back on the parchment paper.
  8. For extra decoration, drizzle some melted chocolate over the tops.
  9. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature or refrigerate for faster results.
