What are the cookies made with coconut and eggwhites called. It's driving me crazy! I know the recipe calls for egg whites, coconut, sweetened condensed milk....
real mararoons. I've never attempted to make the real ones.The recipes are miles long with incredibly difficult instructions. The hard part isn't mixing the dough, it's getting them off the pan without sticking. I've got one cookbook for classic french cooking that gives like 2 pages of instructions & still points out they may stick.
They are terrific but the sticky sweet ones are the ones my family cries for. They are super easy to make.
If you ever do try the real ones again...use parchement or one of those silpat pads. I use the silpat for all my cookies now and never have a problem with sticking any more.
just never made them. The cookbook I mentioned uses silpat for a lot of her recipes, but not for macaroons. I don't know why, but I have to assume that she knows what she's talking about. :shrug:
I made the face chocolate/coconut ones for a party once. They flew off the plate. That recipe wasn't as sweet as usual. Just fabulously chocolatey & coconuty.
