1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Mix Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until well mixed.
3
Whip Egg Whites
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks.
4
Fold Mixture
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the coconut mixture until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
5
Shape Macaroons
Use a spoon or a cookie scoop to drop rounded mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
6
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
7
Cool and Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
