Chocolate Dipped Coconut Macaroons

INGREDIENTS

1 14-ounce bag sweetened coconut flakes

1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk

2 tablespoons butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large egg whites

1/4 teaspoon salt

12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips or wafers

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a mixing bowl, stir together coconut, 3/4 cup of the sweetened condensed milk, butter, and vanilla.

In a large bowl, beat egg whites and salt until stiff peaks form.

Gently fold coconut mixture into the egg whites.

Use a scoop to gather walnut-sized mounds of the mixture and place two-inches apart on the baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until just starting to brown. Remove from oven and let set for a minute before transferring to cooling rack.

In a microwave safe bowl, mix chocolate with 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk. Heat in 30-second increments until melted, stirring each time you check it.

Dip bottom of cookies into the chocolate. Set on parchment paper to set up, then enjoy!
