A holiday selection of cookies is all the more inviting when it includes a chewy one, and here it is: the ultimate macaroon, dense and colourful with a coconut and tropical fruit combo.

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2-1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup each slivered candied pineapple and mango or papaya

Preparation

Line rimless baking sheets with parchment paper or grease; set aside.

In bowl, whisk together condensed milk, egg white and salt. Add coconut, pineapple and mango; stir to coat evenly. Drop by rounded teaspoonful (5 mL) onto prepared pans.

Bake in centre of 325°F (160°C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and no longer sticky to the touch. Let cool on pans on racks for 5 minutes. Transfer to racks; let cool. (Make-ahead: Layer between waxed paper in airtight container and freeze for up to 1 month.)
