Ingredients

7 total
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 125g caster sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 125g desiccated coconut
  • 50g ground almonds
  • 2 tbsp mixed sprinkles, plus extra to decorate (optional)
  • 4 tbsp dark chocolate (and/or use milk and white chocolate), melted, to decorate (optional)

Method

4 steps

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 180°/160°C fan/gas 3. Line 2 baking sheets with baking paper. In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt for 2-3 mins until soft peaks form. Add the sugar and vanilla; whisk for 1-2 mins until combined.

  2. Step 2

    Fold in the coconut and almonds with a spatula until just combined. Fold in the sprinkles, if using.

  3. Step 3

    Use a coffee scoop or tablespoon to dollop around 18 mounds of mixture onto the trays. Bake for 15-20 mins, until just starting to turn pale golden. Remove; leave to cool and harden on the trays.

  4. Step 4

    Decorate the cooled macaroons with melted chocolate and extra sprinkles, if you like; leave to set at room temperature. Store in an airtight container for 3-5 days.
