Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Gluten-Free Italian Coconut Cookies Delight.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a gentle 275°F (135°C) and prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2
In a spacious mixing bowl, grab your electric mixer and whip the egg whites and sugar together until the blend becomes soft and creamy, which should take around two minutes.
Step 3
Next, gradually fold in 2 cups of shredded coconut, mixing until the dough comes together beautifully.
Step 4
Now, take small portions of the dough and shape them into walnut-sized balls, rolling each one in the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded coconut for a delightful coating.
Step 5
Arrange the coconut-covered balls on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they are spaced about 2 inches apart.
Step 6
Slide the sheets into your preheated oven and let them bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the cookies turn a lovely light golden hue.
Step 7
Once baked, allow the cookies to rest on the sheets for a minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Enjoy the sweet aroma as they cool, and savor the anticipation of your delicious coconut treats!.
