Macaroon Magic (Including a Vegan Variation!)
PUBLISHED December 15, 2025
The easiest cookies ever get a Holiday glow-up. As with Mark's Classic Macaroons and Sparkly Coconut Snowballs, only unsweetened shredded coconut works here. Fortunately, it’s commonly available; if all you can find are the ribbons, pulse them a few times in the food processor to get the right texture. Since the ratio is one egg white to one cup coconut and 1/3 cup sugar, the math for making big batches of dough is easy to calculate. Be sure to check out all the variations before deciding what to make first.
