Macaroon recipes rely on whipped egg whites for their signature light, airy texture, creating a delicate balance between crisp edges and a tender, chewy center.

- 2 large egg whites
- 1 pinch salt
- 0.5 cups white sugar
- 2 cups sweetened flaked coconut
Instructions

Beat egg whites and salt together in a small glass, metal, or ceramic bowl using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating at high speed until stiff peaks form; continue to beat until glossy. Fold coconut into egg white mixture.

Drop teaspoonfuls of egg white-coconut mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
