The original recipe called for dipping the macaroons in chocolate, but I skipped that step but it's all about preference.
Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp flour of choice (or protein powder) I used whole wheat
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 tsp instant coffee powder
- 1 cup shredded, unsweetened coconut (not low-fat)
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp milk of choice or canned coconut milk (I did the 1/2 cup light coconut milk and 2 tablespoons of almond milk)
- 3 tbsp agave or pure maple syrup
- pinch stevia or 1 more tbsp agave or maple syrup (I omitted)
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
- just over 1/16 tsp salt
- melted chocolate chips or healthy chocolate sauce, for dipping
Instructions:
Preheat: 360 degrees F
Cook Time: 14-16 minutes
1. Combine all the ingredients except the chocolate chips into a bowl and mix together.
2. Microwave for 2 minutes, I mixed everything in a microwavable bowl and put it directly in the microwave. Remove from microwave and stir. Put bowl back in microwave for another minute or until firm enough to scoop out. Or you can cook on the stovetop until firm enough to scoop.
2. Scoop mixture into balls onto a pan lined with parchment and cook at 360 degrees F for 14-16 minutes.
3. Let cool before removing from tray.
Optional Chocolate Dipping
4. Line a plate with wax paper and dip each cookie in chocolate and let set on the wax paper lined plate in the refrigerator or freezer.
