Ingredients
-
14 ounces
sweetened flaked coconut
-
3/4 cup
sugar
-
2 tablespoons
cornstarch
-
4
large egg whites
-
1 teaspoon
almond extract
-
1/4 teaspoon
kosher salt
-
1 1/2 cups
semisweet chocolate chips
-
2 teaspoons
canola/vegetable oil
-
1/2 cup
toffee milk chocolate bits
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 325°F and line baking sheet with parchment paper or baking mat.
-
In a large bowl, mix coconut, sugar, cornstarch, and salt.
-
Add in egg whites and almond extract and mix thoroughly with a fork.
-
Scoop out mixture with your hands (about 1/4 cup size) and form into a ball (the mixture will be wet, but just pack the cookie together as well as you can).
-
Place onto baking sheet and press down lightly.
-
Bake for 22-24 minutes (the edges and bottoms will get very brown). Remove cookies and let cool.
-
In a small bowl, melt chocolate chips with oil in the microwave in 15 second increments (for about 1 minute total), stirring each increment.
-
Dip the tops of each cookie into the chocolate and sprinkle with toffee bits.
