coconut macaroons

Ingredients

• 4 egg whites
• 198g sugar
• 71g desiccated coconut

Method

1. Beat the egg whites until frothy (Make sure no yolk whatsoever has contaminated the egg whites, otherwise you could be whisking for ever!)
2. Add the sugar and beat until stiff. 
3. Fold in the coconut, put mixture into a piping bag with a star nozzle and pipe 30 macaroons onto a parchment covered baking sheet.
4. Bake for 30 minutes in a preheated oven (170ºC/150ºC Fan/Gas Mark 3).
5. Remove from oven, and allow to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the baking sheet.
