Chocolate Macadamia Macaroons
2 cups flaked coconut
1/2 cup finely chopped macadamia nuts
1/3 cup sugar
3 tbsp baking cocoa
2 tbsp flour
a pinch of salt
2 egg whites, beaten
1 tbsp light corn syrup
1 tsp vanilla
4 squares (1 oz each) semisweet chocolate
In a large bowl, combine the coconut, macadamia nuts, sugar, cocoa, flour, and salt. Add the egg whites, corn syrup, and vanilla. Mix well. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 325 F. for 15-20 minutes or until set and dry to the touch. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pans to wire racks. Cool completely. In a microwave, melt the chocolate. Stir until smooth. Dip the bottom of each cookie in the chocolate. Allow the excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper. Let stand until set.
