Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

2/3 cup all purpose flour (may substitute 1:1 GF All Purpose Flour)
5 1/2 cups shredded sweetened coconut
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 14 ounces can sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
2 cups semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips ((about 12 ounces))
1 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 10" tart pan (with removable bottom) with nonstick cooking spray. Place your tart pan on a cookie sheet to avoid spilling in your oven.
  • Stir flour, coconut, and salt. Stir in sweetened condensed milk and both extracts. Stir until combined. Press into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pan. Press to compact it firmly.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is no longer glossy. Cool completely before making filling.
  • To make the filling, place the heavy whipping cream in a large bowl or measuring cup. Heat in the microwave about 2 minutes, or just until it starts to bubble slightly (but don't let it come to a full boil). Add the chocolate chips. Let it sit for about 10-15 seconds, then whisk until smooth and the chocolate is all dissolved. Pour into crust.
  • Let it sit at room temperature until cool and set. You can make this up to 2 days ahead and store covered in the refrigerator but allow it to come to room temperature before serving.

Coconut macaroons are divine, but they can be a little messy to make. I turned the batter into a pie filling, and the luscious results speak for themselves. -Becky Mollenkamp, St. Louis, Missouri

GANACHE FILLED COCONUT MACAROONS



Ganache filled Coconut Macaroons image

I have loved macaroons since I was a kid. Adding chocolate on them just steps them up a notch! I think that the condensed milk in this recipe is what makes them so flavorful. Can't wait to make these again.

Number Of Ingredients 17

5 cup(s) angel flake coconut (one 14 ounce bag)
4 tablespoon(s) sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
1 pinch(es) kosher salt
4 large egg whites, room temperature (I use extra large eggs)
1/2 cup(s) extra fine granulated sugar (regular sugar will work if you don't have access to extra fine)
CHOCOLATE GANACHE
1 can(s) 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
12 ounce(s) bag of semi sweet chocolate chips (to keep it gluten free use hershey's brand)
1 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
TRADITIONAL WAY OF MAKING THE GANACHE
1 cup(s) heavy cream
12 ounce(s) bag of semi sweet chocolate chips (to keep it gluten free use hershey's brand)
1 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
TOOLS
- parchment paper
- cookie scoop (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 if using a convection oven preheat to 300. Line baking pans with parchment paper.
  • In large bowl combine coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and salt. Toss to evenly coat coconut with the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Set aside.
  • In mixer bowl combine room temperature egg whites and sugar. Using preferably a stand mixer, beat on high speed till stiff peaks form.
  • Now gently fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture. DO NOT OVER MIX
  • Preferably using a cookie scoop, drop scoop fulls onto parchment lined baking sheets. With your thumb make indentations into the center of each bound.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until light golden brown. Allow macaroons to cool before removing from parchment. I just slide the parchment off the baking sheet if I need to use the sheet again.
  • Ganache- combine sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips into a small sauce pan, Cook and stir over medium low heat just till all the chocolate is melted. Remove from heat and add vanilla and mix in well. Top each fully cooled macaroon with a spoon full of ganache. If they don't just all get gobbled up store in air tight container.
  • Optional method of making Ganache, Place chocolate chips in a glass or metal bowl, set aside. In small sauce pan bring cream to a boil. Pour over chocolate chips, cover and let sit for 10 minutes. Whisk till smooth and add vanilla. This is only stable at room temp for a max of 48 hours, so you only want to use this method if your macaroons are going to be eaten in that time. Macaroons do not do well in refrigeration. But I wanted you to have the recipe for typical ganache.
