Are you looking for a super simple cookie that is sure to please a crowd?

Look no further than these chocolate chunk macaroons!

Not only are they delicious and chewy but they are also gluten-free!

If you want a less sweet cookie, replace the sweetened shredded coconut with unsweetened coconut. However, sweetened is typically easier to find.

I made these macaroons with chocolate chunks but you can also use chocolate chips if you can’t find chocolate chunks.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine sugar, coconut, egg whites, chocolate chunks, vanilla, and salt.
  • Use your hands to mix well, completely combining ingredients.
  • Dampen hands with cold water. Form 1-1/2 tablespoons of mixture into a loose haystack shape, and place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Repeat with the remaining mixture, placing macaroons about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove baking sheet from oven to a wire rack, and let macaroons cool slightly on baking sheet.
  • These are best served warm from the oven, but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days; leave in a warm place for 1 hour before serving to allow chocolate to soften.

Great minds think alike. I'm making a coca coconut cookie. A little bit different but not much! Yours looks delicious. I'd eat a couple for breakfast with my coffee this morning if I had any. ;-).
