Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

7 ounces shredded coconut
6 ounces granulated sugar
1/3 ounce vanilla sugar
3 egg whites
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F; butter a baking sheet.
  • In a saucepan, on medium heat, combine the egg whites, sugar and vanilla sugar then and whisk vigourously until they get hot and frothy. Remove from heat and keep whisking until temperature cools down a bit.
  • Add the shredded coconut all at once and mix together with a wooden spoon; place balls of coconut mixture on the baking sheet (around 2.5 in diameter).
  • Bake in oven for 15 minutes until they get golden; the Congolais must be crunchy outside and soft inside.
  • Serve the biscuits warm or cold, simply by themselves or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or chocolate sauce.
