     Easy Homemade Macaroons

Category   Desserts - Breads
Sub Category   Holiday Dish
Servings   About 20 macaroons

Ingredients
2 cups packed shredded coconut (not sweetened)
1/2 cup sugar
pinch salt
3 egg whites
1/4 cup matzo cake meal (for firmer macaroons)
1 1/2 tsp. grated lemon peel
For chocolate dipped-
6 oz. chocolate
1 Tablespoon shortening
 

Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a bowl, toss coconut, sugar and salt (and cake meal). Add egg whites and work in with wooden spoon to form a dough.
Shape heaping teaspoons of dough into balls. Place on lightly greased cookie sheet.
Bake 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Let cool 5 minutes; then remove to rack to cool completely.
To dip macaroons in chocolate- Place 6 oz. chocolate (I use chocolate chips) in a microwave safe bowl with 1 T shortening. Heat on high for about 25 seconds. Stir- the chocolate will melt together more. Continue to heat for 10 seconds at a time and stir until nicely melted together. Dip cooled macaroons and let set.
Serving Suggestions
Add other flavorings if you like! Almond or vanilla extract would be great.
