Coconut Macaroons With Chocolate, Pistachio and Almonds

These pretty creatures will trigger happy hormones in you. Just try these Coconut Macaroons With Chocolate at home and you will also confirm that I am not exaggerating.
Last week I saw the recipe on another food blog and I had to think about my childhood. Honestly, I can’t remember the last time I ate these. Why did I do this to myself? One must not forget such a simple and very tasty dessert. These macaroons are flourless and naturally gluten-free. You have to put it on your gluten-free dessert recipes list.
Let’s take a closer look at our ingredients!
Ingredients for Coconut Macaroons With Chocolate
Shredded Coconut
You need 250 g unsweetened shredded coconut.
Sugar
Some recipes say that you should add 1 cup of sugar. Please DO NOT DO THIS!!! You only need 100 g sugar.
Cinnamon
We need 1/2 tablespoon of cinnamon.
Egg whites
As always, we will use organic eggs. We only need three egg whites. If you are vegan, you can add flaxseed egg.
Your favorite chocolate
I do not like the taste of the chocolate chips. I will use my favorite chocolate (with almonds). I suggest you use your favorite chocolate, too. As we only want to dip the macaroons in the chocolate, 100 g is enough.
Salt
Salt has the ability to enhance flavors and balance desserts that are rich and sweet. We only need 1/2 tablespoon of salt.
Vanilla extract
Vanilla extract is optional.
Pistachios and Almonds for the Topping
You need 10 almonds and 10 pistachios.
That is it!

Instructions - Coconut Macaroons With Chocolateons
Place the egg whites and salt in a bowl and whip with a hand blender for about 5 minutes.
In another bowl, combine shredded coconut, sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well.
Combine the mixtures. Fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture until combined. Use a spoon. DO NOT USE A HAND BLENDER!
Using an ice cream scoop or spoon, shape the mixture into balls and place them onto a baking tray.
Place the baking tray on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Melt the chocolate. You can use a microwave or melt it over a double boiler or in a glass bowl over HOT water.
Place the melted chocolate into a small bowl.
Dip each macaroon into the melted chocolate. Place the almonds and pistachios on the macaroons. You can use melted chocolate as "glue". Lay on the parchment for chocolate to harden.
After 10-15 minutes, your coconut macaroons with chocolate are ready to enjoy:)
