Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Salted Caramel Coconut Macaroons Delight.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and position the racks in the upper and lower thirds to ensure even baking.
Step 2
To prepare your baking sheets, line two large ones with parchment paper or nonstick foil—this will help your delicious treats come off easily later.
Step 3
In a spacious bowl, mix together sweetened flaked coconut, all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Step 4
Next, pour in the sweetened condensed milk and a splash of vanilla extract, stirring gently until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 5
Now, grab a medium cookie scoop and drop generous 2-inch balls of dough onto your prepared baking sheets, making sure to leave some space between them.
Step 6
With your thumb, create a little indentation in the center of each ball—this is where the magic happens later! Pop the trays into your preheated oven and bake for about 15 to 17 minutes, or until the coconut is perfectly toasted and the bottoms are a lovely golden brown.
Step 7
Remember to rotate the pans halfway through baking for that even color.
Step 8
If your cookies puff up a bit, don’t worry—just gently press down the centers with the rounded side of a measuring teaspoon.
Step 9
Once they’re done, let the macaroons cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
When they’re cool and ready for the final touch, spoon a scant teaspoon of caramel topping into each little indentation and finish with a sprinkle of gray sea salt for that perfect sweet and salty balance.
Step 11
Enjoy your delightful homemade macaroons!.
