Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk for a lighter version, try low-fat
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup salted caramel sauce store-bought or homemade
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Optional Ingredients
  • Dark chocolate for dipping (70% cacao or higher for a healthier variant)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
  2. Stir until the mixture is well combined. If it’s too sticky, add a bit more coconut.
Forming the Macaroons
  1. Using your hands, roll the mixture into small balls about 1 inch in diameter.
  2. Wet your hands with a little water to prevent sticking.
Chilling
  1. Place the macaroons on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for about 20 minutes until firm.
  2. If you want a firmer texture, chill them for an extra 10 minutes.
Coating
  1. Drizzle salted caramel sauce over the chilled macaroons.
  2. For a gourmet touch, dip the bottom of each macaroon in melted dark chocolate before placing them back on parchment.
Serving
  1. Enjoy your creations instantly or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

Consider pairing with a sprinkle of sea salt or a drizzle of chocolate for added flair!
