Ingredients

  • 1 (14 ounce) package sweetened flaked coconut
  • ⅔ cup sweetened condensed milk
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large egg whites, at room temperature
  • 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped

Information

  • Prep Time: 15 mins
  • Cook Time: 55 mins
  • Additional Time: 30 mins
  • Total Time: 1 hr 40 mins
  • Servings: 36
  • Yield: 36 macaroons

  • Preheat an air fryer to 320 degrees F (160 degrees C) for 10 minutes. Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the air fryer basket, leaving 1 inch on each side to use as handles.
  • Mix coconut, condensed milk, salt, and vanilla together in a large bowl.
  • Beat egg whites in a medium bowl with an electric mixer with a whisk attachment on medium-high speed until stiff peaks almost form, about 90 seconds. Fold egg whites into the coconut mixture.
  • Working in batches, spoon level tablespoons of the coconut mixture into rounds and place on the parchment paper, about 6 at time. Carefully transfer the parchment with coconut rounds into the air fryer basket.
  • Cook until golden brown and set, 9 to 10 minutes. Remove parchment from basket, transfer macaroons to a wire rack, and repeat the process with remaining coconut mixture using the same piece of parchment paper.
  • Microwave chocolate in a medium microwave-safe bowl on high power for 30 seconds, then stir. Continue microwaving and stirring in 30 second increments, until melted and smooth, about 90 seconds total.
  • Dip flat bottoms of macaroons into melted chocolate and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet to set. Let rest until chocolate firms, about 30 minutes.
