2 egg whites
dash salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup sugar
1 1/3 cups sweetened, flaked coconut
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325ºF. Spray two baking sheets with cooking spray, or line with parchment.
In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites, salt, and vanilla with a mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually, add the sugar, beating until fairly stiff. The mixture should resemble thick marshmallow creme. Fold in the coconut.
Drop by teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 325ºF for 20 minutes. Remove to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Makes about 48 cookies.
*If desired add a few drops of food coloring with the sugar until desired color is acheived.
