INGREDIENTS
-
4 large egg whites, at room temperature
-
½ cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract
-
4 ¾ cup sweetened shredded coconut

2 tbsp cocoa powder

DIRECTIONS
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F.
-
In a large bowl, beat the egg whites, sugar, and vanilla extract together using the Dash SmartStore Hand Mixer on medium-high speed until foamy and the sugar is mostly dissolved, at least 2 minutes.
-
Fold in the coconut, making sure the coconut is evenly moistened.
-
Divide dough evenly into two bowls. In one bowl, add the cocoa powder and melted chocolate. Mix to combine.
- Using a medium cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop 1½ tbsp of the mixture and arrange on prepared baking sheets at least 2 inches apart.
- Bake until lightly golden brown around the edges and tops, about 20 minutes.
- Cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Pipe melted chocolate over the cooled cookies. Enjoy!
