How to Make 3 Ingredient Chewy Macaroons

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (Do not just grease the sheet, as the macaroons will stick).
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup egg whites.
  4. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is slightly sticky.
  5. Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop (approximately 1 tablespoon), drop rounded mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each macaroon.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  7. Carefully transfer the macaroons to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once cool, store in an airtight container at room temperature or freeze for longer storage.
