Rudolph Noses Recipe

Rudolph Noses Recipe

  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups shredded coconut
  • 12 maraschino cherries, halved
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line baking sheets with waxed paper.
  2. Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.
  3. Beat cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt into egg white mixture until incorporated; fold in coconut. Drop spoonfuls of coconut mixture onto the prepared baking sheets.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until coconut starts to brown, about 20 minutes.
  5. Press a cherry half into the top of each macaroon; transfer cookies to a cooling rack.
