These coconut macaroons are chewy, golden mounds of toasted coconut held together by sweetened condensed milk and dipped in dark chocolate.

The condensed milk caramelizes slightly during baking, giving the bottoms a golden, slightly crispy base.

Dip in melted dark chocolate for a beautiful finish. Naturally gluten-free.

  4. 4

    Bake at 325°F for 18-20 minutes until golden on edges.

  5. 5

    Cool completely. Dip bottoms in melted dark chocolate. Set on parchment until chocolate hardens.
