Coconut Macaroons



For this I followed the recipe from Nigella Lawson's "How to be a Domestic Goddess"
I did not have cream of tartar as called for in this recipe so the macaroons did not turn out very crispy but tasted really good.Even if I do say so myself :)

Ingredients:
2 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1/3 cup sugar
2 tbsp ground almonds
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup plus 2 tbsp shredded coconut
1 baking sheet

Preheat the oven to 150 degree celsius
beat egg whites till frothy and add cream of tartar continue beating till stiff
add in almonds salt vanilla and coconut
form into domes 2 inches in diameter
cook for 20 minutes till they begin to turn golden
makes 8 large macaroons
