Ingredients for 2 Ingredient Toasted Coconut Macaroon Cookie Creations

  • Desiccated Coconut
  • Sweetened Condensed Milk

How to Make 2 Ingredient Toasted Coconut Macaroon Cookie Creations

  1. Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
  2. Pour 198g (approximately ¾ of a 14-ounce can) of sweetened condensed milk into a large bowl.
  3. Add 100g of desiccated coconut to the bowl and mix thoroughly until well combined.
  4. Adjust the consistency: If the mixture is too wet, add more coconut, one tablespoon at a time, until it forms a slightly moist, pliable dough that holds its shape when squeezed. If it's too dry, add a teaspoon of condensed milk at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
  5. Shape the mixture into small balls or pyramids (approximately 1 inch in size).
  6. Carefully place the macaroons on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Grill or broil for 2-3 minutes per side, watching constantly, until lightly golden brown. These cook quickly, so keep a close eye on them to prevent burning!
  8. Remove from the grill and let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
  9. Enjoy the irresistible taste of freshly toasted coconut macaroons!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
