COCONUT MACAROONS


These coconut macaroons are perfect to breakfast. If you need a practical recipe to bake when you're in a hurry, make them. They'll be baked in few minutes and are delish to side with a cup of hot milk and coffee. And if they have a small chocolate piece or your favorite jam? Yummier! This is one of that recipes that we always bake, 'cause it's simple and tasty!






50g butter, softened
100g sugar
1 egg lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla or coconut extract
100ml milk
215g flour
3 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
100g shredded coconut

Directions
Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
With a fork, cream butter and sugar. Add lightly beaten egg and vanilla or coconut extract, beating with fork until is smooth. Fold in flour, baking powder and salt intercalating with milk. Fold in shredded coconut. Make macaroons with two spoons. If you prefer, place a small piece of chocolate or a little jam in macaroon's center. Bake for 15 minutes.

Serve: 30 macaroons.
