Coconut Macaroons

from Anna

3 egg whites
1 ¼ cups caster sugar
2 tablespoons corn flour
3 cups desiccated coconut


In a large bowl beat egg whites until firm peaks form. Add sugar gradually, beating constantly until mixture is thick & glossy and all the sugar is dissolved.

Sift corn flour and add coconut. Using a metal spoon stir until just combined.

Drop 2 teaspoons of mixture onto lined (Glad Bake) baking trays about 3cm apart.

Bake at 160°C for about 18-20 mins or until golden.

Let cool.

(Macaroons can also be half-dipped in melted chocolate once cool.)
