Coconut Macaroons

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 15 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : cookies
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup egg whites -- 3 or 4
Sweetener equivalent to 1 1/4 cups sugar (30
packets)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
4 tablespoons coconut milk -- leche do coco
2 tablespoons water

mix water, coconut and coconut milk with coconut, incorporating it with
the back of a soup spoon.

Beat egg whites until fluffy but not stiff. Stir in sweetener, salt,
vanilla. Blend in coconut.

Bake at 325 about 15 to 20 minutes, or until lightly browned.

Description:
"Sugar-free macaroons"

Yield:
"30 cookies"




NOTES :
I used a measuring tablespoon to form the cookies. Recipe makes about
30 cookies.
Notes: The unsweetened coconut is dry. I used coconut milk, available
in the Latino foods aisle (Goya brand) and water to moisten the coconut.
