American macarons are coconut delight in every bite. Add cornflakes to the coconut base for a crispier texture. To give these delicious yet simple macarons a more festive look, dip them in chocolate icing after they've cooled and sprinkle with silver nonpareils. Serve until the chocolate hardens, or gift them in a pretty box.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites, sugar, vanilla, and salt until foamy. Stir in the coconut and cornflakes. Scoop 1 tablespoon of the coconut mixture, pressing it with your fingers, and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2-5 cm (1-2 inches) apart. Shape each mound into a pyramid shape.
  2. Bake until cookies are slightly firm and golden brown, 25-35 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheet.

  3. Meanwhile, combine the chocolate and coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until melted, about 2 minutes, stirring. Let cool slightly.
  4. Dip the bottom of each coconut cookie in chocolate, letting any excess drip back into the bowl. Sprinkle with nonpareils. Transfer the cookies to a large plate or baking sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, at least 30 minutes.
