I baked my husband a chocolate pie this weekend and it called for 4 egg yolks. I could not waste the whites so I pulled out a recipe I had for Macaroons.

These where almost better than the pie! Light as air and oh so delectable!

Ingredients

• 2 egg whites room temperature
• 1 t Vanilla
• Pinch of salt
• Less that 1/8 t Cream of Tartar
• 2/3 C Sugar
• 1 1/3 C Flaked Coconut

Directions

Preheat oven to 325.
Beat the egg whites, Vanilla, salt and Cream of Tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually add small amounts of sugar and beat well until all sugar added. Fold in the Coconut. Drop onto parchment paper that is placed on cookie sheets by rounded spoonfuls. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
