Coconut Macaroons are some of my very favorite cookies to make at Christmas. I just love all the coconutty flavor, crunch, and buttery taste. Since baking is one of my favorite Christmas traditions, I have started testing out recipes to add to my list. I think that by being able to carry on one of my favorite Christmas traditions and having the option of a keto approved sweet treat now and then, will make it easier not to lose my mind on carbs and sweets this holiday season. I love how just a little bit of Lily’s Chocolate drizzled on top of these cookies gives them such a boost in flavor without adding tons of carbs. I’ve included links to several other cookie recipes below in case you are looking for keto/low carb cookie and bar recipes…
Ingredients [ For 4 to 5 people ] [ Preparation time : 12 minute – Cooking time : 55 minutes ]
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup granulated Swerve
- 2 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut
- 3 1/2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons Lily’s Chocolate Chips
Preparation Method
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or grease a cookie sheet.
-
Melt butter then adds coconut and mix together well.
-
In a separate bowl, add sugar and egg and beat with a mixer until mixture is fluffy.
-
Add butter, coconut, and vanilla to the sugar and egg and combine well.
-
Drop with a small cookie scoop onto the parchment paper and cook for 8-10 minutes or until coconut macaroons become slightly toasted on top and bottom.
-
Make sure to check often as they can burn quickly.
-
Remove from oven and cool on a wire cooling rack.
-
Add 2 tablespoons Lily’s Chocolate Chips to a ziplock bag (don’t close the bag) and microwave 30 seconds.
-
Press on chips with your hand to see if they are completely melted. Continue microwaving in 15-second intervals until the chocolate chips are melted.
-
Cut a tiny corner off the bag and squeeze melted chocolate so that when you move the bag back and forth over the cookies the chocolate drizzles.
-
Place cookie sheet in the fridge so that chocolate can set.
Enjoy it!!
