2 Ingredient Coconut Macaroon Cookies
I love making treats that are super fast, take only a few ingredients and taste amazing! These take less than 10 minutes from start to finish so I can easily make up a batch and get back to work or relaxing.
Plus they only take a few kitchen essentials so there isn't a ton of dishes to do.
Coconut Macaroons
Ingredients
- coconut flakes
- sweetened condensed milk
Equipment needed
- Baking Sheets - We are huge fans of these baking sheets that have sides. You don't have to worry; you are going to remove the cookies from the oven and have the slide right off.
- Large Mixing Bowl - We are big fans of this glass batter bowl that has a handle. It makes it easy to mix ingredients and keep the mixing bowl steady on the counter.
- Ice Cream Scoop
- Heat resistant potholders - A couple of years ago we had a fire scare when we didn't realize we had turned a burner on and a cloth potholder caught fire. Thankfully we walked by the kitchen and saw the smoke and were able to get it out ourselves. Since then we have only used these heat-resistant potholders.
When mixing you want to make sure that there is plenty of the coconut mixed with the condensed milk. The condensed milk should bind the coconut together but it should not be liquidy.
If the mix has too much-condensed milk the milk will spread across the baking sheet and not keep the coconut bound together.
If you want to make these even more decadent you can drizzle chocolate over them or dip the coconut macaroons in chocolate.

Hi, I really like short and sweet recipes. 😉 One question: Do you use sweetened or unsweetened coconut? Thanks!
Tammilee
I used sweetened coconut. I figured it would help make the cookies even better.
Allyson
How big a package of coconut do you use?
Nathalie
I really want to make those. I buy my coconut in bulk. can you tell me the amount of coconut in your package?
Thanks so much.

These cookies are great, EXCEPT the recipe I use also has 2 Tbsp corn starch added to the dry coconut before adding the sw cond milk.
The most common coconut is sweetened, although I have bought the unsweetened kinc ONCE.
Also you can add extra things like chopped marachino cherries, choc chips or m&m s. I really like the dark choc chips in these. I also bake them on parchment paper,

I love this recipe! Just want to know the weight of the coconut package? We have fresh coconuts in my country and I'm wondering how it would work out with them!
