Six ingredients. One bowl. Fifteen minutes. These coconut macaroons are the fastest path to a cookie that tastes like you spent way longer than you did.

Shredded coconut, chopped cashews, a little flour, and a pinch of salt get bound together with sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Drop them by the tablespoon onto a greased sheet and bake until the edges turn golden.

They come out chewy and dense in the center with lightly toasted edges that shatter just a bit when you bite through. The cashews add a buttery crunch that sets these apart from your standard macaroon.

Kitchen Tips

  • Watch them closely after the 8-minute mark. They go from golden to overdone fast, and you want chewy centers, not crunchy ones.
  • Let them cool completely on the sheet before moving them. They’re fragile when warm and firm up as they rest.
  • For a fancy finish, drizzle melted dark chocolate across the tops once cooled.
