Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine sugar, coconut, 3 egg whites, vanilla, and salt. Using your hands, mix well, completely combining ingredients. The additional egg white may be added, a little at a time, if the mixture is dry and doesn't hold together.
- Use a small ice cream scoop or 2 tablespoons to form mounds; place on prepared baking sheet, spacing about 1 inch apart. Dampen your hands with water if necessary, and pinch mounds to create a pyramid shape.
- Bake until golden brown, rotating halfway through, 16 to 17 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
CHOCOLATE-DIPPED COCONUT MACAROONS
Even first-time cookie makers can pull off super moist, tender, chewy macaroons. Using sweetened condensed milk streamlines the operation and produces a very nice texture. Simple to make and easy to transport, these are the ultimate cookies to bring to any potluck. Just stick an almond inside each macaroon if you want to relive that chocolate-coated coconut-filled candy bar of your childhood.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine condensed milk, almond extract, vanilla extract, salt, and egg white in a bowl. Whisk until thoroughly combined. Add about 2 1/3 cups shredded coconut. Mix with a spatula until mixture is sticky and holds together. Form into balls using a sorbet scoop.
- Roll balls in remaining coconut. Space macaroons evenly onto a silicone-lined baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, at least 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place 3/4 of the chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the rest of the chocolate until it melts.
- Dip the base of each cooled macaroon about 1/8 inch into the chocolate. Place cookies, chocolate-side down, on parchment paper. Let chocolate harden completely.

COCONUT MACAROON ICE CREAM (BISCUIT TORTONI)
I'm not sure whether this is "real" Biscuit Tortoni, but if you like coconut macaroons (and sinfully rich desserts), you should love this. When we were kids, my sister and I got to choose what my mother cooked for dinner on our birthdays. Actually, of course, she could have just cooked the dinners without asking, because we always asked for our favorite foods. So on my birthday, dessert was always Coconut Macaroon Ice Cream. BTW the prep time figure obviously doesn't count the overnight freezing time.

CHOCOLATE-DIPPED COCONUT MACAROONS
Writing an ice cream book means two things: (1) you'll need to buy a separate freezer, and (2) you're going to have buckets of egg whites left over. Because this recipe uses quite of bit of egg whites, it was a staple in my repertoire for a while. I was certain all my friends (and neighbors, and delivery men, and local merchants, and the people who work in my doctor's office) would tire of eating these coconut macaroons, but never once did I hear a complaint. Dipping the bottoms in dark chocolate isn't required, but it really lifts the macaroons to a whole different level. I very highly recommend it.

Steps:
- In a Dutch oven or very large saucepan, mix together the egg whites, sugar, salt, honey, coconut, flour, and vanilla. Set over medium-low heat and gently cooking the mixture, stirring frequently to dry it out a bit. When the bottom just begins to sizzle, transfer the mixture to a medium bowl and let cool slightly.
- Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- When the mixture is cool enough to handle, use your fingers to form it into tight 1 1/4-inch (3-cm) pyramids and place them on the prepared baking sheets (they won't spread during baking so you can place them fairly close together).
- Bake, rotating the baking sheets midway during baking, until the macaroons are uniformly deep golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets.
- To dip the macaroons in chocolate, remove the cookies from the baking sheets. Turn over the parchment paper sheets so the clean sides are facing up or line the baking sheets with plastic wrap.
- Add the chocolate to a medium heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until melted and smooth.
- Dip the bottom of each macaroon into the melted chocolate, scraping any excess chocolate against the inside rim of the bowl. After dipping, place the cookie, dipped side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate until the chocolate hardens.
- The batter can be refrigerated for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 1 month. The macaroons, dipped or undipped, can be kept in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Milk chocolate can be used in place of the dark chocolate. To make these cookies for Passover, substitute ground almonds or matzoh meal for the flour.
