Categories     dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying baking sheet
2 1/2 cups shredded sweetened coconut
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon pure almond extract
4 ounces semisweet chocolate morsels (1/2 cup), melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a mixing bowl, stir to combine the coconut, sugar and salt. Make a well in the center of the bowl and lightly whisk in the egg whites and almond extract until well incorporated with the other ingredients.
  • For each macaroon, spoon up about 2 teaspoons of the coconut mixture and roll into a ball in the palm of your hand, wetting your fingers if necessary. Pinch the top to shape each ball into a pyramid; space the macaroons about 1 inch apart from one another on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake until the edges and tops are golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly on the baking sheet, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Dip the bottom of each macaroon in the chocolate and return to the parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Store the macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Nonstick cooking spray, for the parchment
1 bag cooked microwave popcorn or 8 cups bagged sea salt popcorn
1 1/4 cups butterscotch chips
1 teaspoon coconut oil
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup crushed salted dry-roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Place the popcorn in a large bowl.
  • Using a double boiler, heat the butterscotch chips until melted, whisking frequently. Whisk in the coconut oil. While warm, pour over the popcorn and stir until coated in the butterscotch mixture. Immediately turn out onto the prepared baking sheet. Press down into an even layer.
  • Melt the white chocolate chips using the same method as the butterscotch chips, or microwave them until melted. Drizzle the chocolate over the popcorn with a spoon, then sprinkle the crushed peanuts all over. Let the chocolate harden, then break up the brittle before serving.
