Equipment

  • Parchment paper or baking sheet

Ingredients

  • 2 egg white
  • 90 gr sugar
  • 180 gr coconut (shredded)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 220 °C (425°F).
  • To start, combine the dry ingredients, thus shredded coconut and sugar.
  • Then add egg whites and mix evenly. The aspect remains quite dry, that’s normal.
  • Place a sheet of baking paper or parchment paper on a baking tray. Using a spoon, make small heaps of the shape of a rock (it won’t change while baking) of the size of your choice. Make sure that they are all the same size so that they will cook evenly.
  • Lower the oven to 200°C (400°C) and bake for about 10 minutes. It is difficult to give a precise baking time because it all depends on the size of your cookies. As an indication I baked 10 min at 200 °C for the 22 cookies I made with the indicated quantities. Be sure the remain a bit soft thus chewy in the inside..

Notes

The main steps: Combine the 3 ingredients, make dollops on a baking sheet and bake. that’s all.
