- Ensure your egg whites are at room temperature before whipping; this helps them achieve maximum volume.
- For a smoother texture, you can pulse the dried coconut meat in a food processor before adding it to the mix.
- Consider using parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent the macaroons from sticking to the baking sheet.
- Dip the bottoms of the cooled macaroons in melted dark chocolate for an extra indulgent treat.
- Keep an eye on the macaroons while they bake to prevent over-browning; they should be just slightly golden.
