How to Make Coconutty Macaroons

Melt 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Let the melted chocolate cool slightly.
In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 2 large egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff, glossy peaks form.
Gently fold in ½ cup granulated sugar, 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut, the cooled melted chocolate, ½ cup chopped nuts (your choice!), ¼ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each macaroon.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Let the macaroons cool completely on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy!
