Orange Coconut Macaroons Drizzled In Chocolate - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (14 ounce) package sweetened flaked coconut
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 egg whites
1 pinch salt
1 (8 ounce) package semisweet chocolate, chopped

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mix flaked coconut, sweetened condensed milk, orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl.
Place egg whites and salt in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold into the coconut mixture. Drop tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto the lined baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each melting, about 90 seconds.
Dip the bottom of the cooled macaroons into the melted chocolate and set back on the parchment paper. Drizzle remaining chocolate on top. Cool until chocolate hardens, about 10 minutes.
