GRANDMA'S CORN FLAKE COCONUT MACAROONS



Grandma's Corn Flake Coconut Macaroons image

A fast and easy recipe that is great for mailing to friends and family, festively snowy white, and very tasty with a pleasantly crunchy and chewy texture. This recipe originally comes from my great-grandmother and has been handed down through four generations. My Grandma Sally makes these almost every year for Christmas and it is one of my favorite Christmas cookie recipes. The cookies will be chewy-crunchy when finished cooling, not gooey.

Time 1h30m

Yield About 20 macaroons

Number Of Ingredients 10

Cooking spray
3 large egg whites
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups sweetened shredded coconut

Form each into a pyramid shape.

CORN FLAKES MACAROONS

This is another recipe I used to make every Christmas as a kid, all by myself. Sticky, sweet, messy...I had so much fun making and eating them. Originally from the "Jones Farm Country Kitchen" community cookbook.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 18m

Yield 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup dried coconut, shredded (I used the sweetened kind in bags)
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups corn flakes cereal
candied cherry, halved (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix everything except the cherries together.
  • Drop in small mounds onto parchment lined baking sheets (using 2 spoons to help smoosh the mixture into a mound - be patient here, it will look somewhat too loose, but as it cooks it melts together.
  • Garnish with a cherry half if desired, pretty down gently.
  • Bake about 8-10 minutes, in a preheated 350°F oven.
  • Allow to cool a bit on the baking sheets before carefully removing to racks to cool - but not too long or they will harden up too much.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn flakes. Stale corn flakes will not produce the same light and airy texture.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the macaroons tough.
  • Chill the batter for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the macaroons hold their shape.
  • Bake the macaroons until they are golden brown. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the macaroons cool completely before serving. This will help them set and firm up.

Conclusion:

Corn flakes macaroons are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. With a little bit of planning, you can easily make these macaroons at home and enjoy them with your family and friends.
