Coconut Macaroons

I would think making a macaroon would be very challenging, but I recently learned in my cook off challenge 2 that it's very simple and impressive.  Once again, this is an Ina Garten recipe, (and if I haven't convinced you enough to go buy her cook book yet, this recipe will).  You will need, sweetened 14 oz. shredded coconut, sweetened 14 oz condensed milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 XL egg whites at room temp, 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees
Combine coconut, condensed milk, and vanilla.
whip egg whites with salt on high speed till you get medium-firm peaks.  Carefully fold egg whites into the coconut mixture.
Drop batter onto sheet pans lined with parchment paper (it gets STICKY)
Use an ice cream scoop and place on pan
bake for 25 min (keep an eye so they dont burn, you want them golden dark brown)

It is very sweet so I dont recommend chocolate because it would be TOO sweet.  If your macaroons flatten, dont worry.  You can shape them again in your hand to make a nice dome.

Enjoy!
