How to Make Passover Black White Coconut Macaroons

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 4 cups sweetened shredded coconut, 1 cup matzah cake meal, and 1 cup granulated sugar. Mix well.
  3. Add 2 large eggs and 1 large egg white to the coconut mixture. Use your fingers to gently mix until thoroughly combined.
  4. Shape approximately 2 tablespoons of dough into small pyramids. Place onto prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each macaroon.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely on baking sheets.
  6. While macaroons are baking, prepare the chocolate dipping glaze. In a small saucepan, combine 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/4 cup granulated sugar with 2 tablespoons water.
  7. Melt chocolate over low heat, stirring frequently, until smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer and continue to stir for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  8. Remove from heat and let the chocolate cool slightly until it's still pourable but not too runny.
  9. Dip half of each cooled macaroon into the melted chocolate, ensuring half remains white. Gently tilt the dipped macaroon over a dish to let excess chocolate drip off.
  10. Place the dipped macaroons onto wax paper to set for a few minutes before serving.
