Egg-Free/Gluten Free Macaroons
8 oz. Flaked Coconut (big flakes, dry) 5 oz. Shredded Coconut (unsweetened/dry) 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional- can add other flavors as well) 1/2-3/4 C Mini chocolate chips (can use big choc, chips, just roughly chop them) 8-12oz. Sweetened condensed milk
·Preheat oven to 325°F ·Combine the first 4 ingredients in a large mixing bowl. ·Slowly add in the sweetened condensed milk. The mixture should be wet enough to hold its shape when squeezed together with a hand. ·Line cookie sheet with foil and spray a light layer on cooking spray. ·Oil hands, and then scoop 1 T of the coconut mixture into hands. Squeeze into a tight ball and place on cookie sheet 1 inch apart. ·Bake for 8-10min. Keep an eye on the cookies; they burn very quickly. ·Once the cookies become golden brown, remove and let cool for 5-7min. It is very important to get the cookies off after 5-7 min out of the oven. If you leave them on the cookie sheet until they cool completely, then they will be very difficult to remove. ·Enjoy!!
