This is a match made in heaven. Fresh orange zest in coconut macaroons with chocolate! I made these with citrus thinking of spring and it was for my Passover dinner since there is no leavening in them. It was a big hit! Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 to 3 days.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix flaked coconut, sweetened condensed milk, orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl.
- Place egg whites and salt in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold into the coconut mixture. Drop tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto the lined baking sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each melting, about 90 seconds.
- Dip the bottom of the cooled macaroons into the melted chocolate and set back on the parchment paper. Drizzle remaining chocolate on top. Cool until chocolate hardens, about 10 minutes.
