My First Ever: Coconut Macaroon Balls

Coconut Macaroon Balls

This recipe is also from "Sweet Delights" Magazine.

I did not put as much sugar, I put about 100 gr and that was already sweet for me.

Ingredients:

100 gr egg whites

240 gr sugar

100 gr dessicated coconut

35 gr almond meal

Method:

Preheat oven to 160C.

Using a double boiler, whisk egg whites and sugar until sugar has dissolved.

Pour into mixing bowl and continue whisking until stiff peaks form.

Fold in dry ingredients.

**I found this method is a bit difficult because after I moved the mixture into a bowl and whisked it with electric mixer, it only ribbon formed.  Next time I would like to try without double boiler, see if it works.**

Using a star nozzle, pipe onto lined baking trays.  Bake for 10-12 minutes.

**I just form balls with 2 teaspoons**
