Ingredients:

2 cups dried coconut meat
170g
1/2 cup coconut oil
110g
5 tbsp dry cocoa powder
27g
1/4 cup honey
88g
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2.10g
1/4 tsp salt
1.50g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Gather all your ingredients.
- If the coconut oil is solid, gently melt it in a small saucepan over low heat or microwave it until it becomes liquid. Let it cool slightly before using.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried coconut meat, cocoa powder, and salt.
- Stir well to ensure the cocoa powder is evenly distributed throughout the coconut.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, mix together the melted coconut oil, honey, and vanilla extract.
- Stir until the honey and vanilla are fully integrated into the coconut oil.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients.
- Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined. The mixture should have a sticky, cohesive texture.
5. Shape Macaroons:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and shape into small mounds or balls.
- Place each mound onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each one.
6. Chill:
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and allow the macaroons to chill for at least 30 minutes, or until they are firm to the touch.
7. Serve and Store:
- Once firm, your Rich Raw Chocolate Coconut Macaroons are ready to enjoy!
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They should keep well for up to a week.

Tips:

- Ensure the coconut oil is at room temperature or slightly melted for easier mixing.

- If your honey is too thick, warm it slightly to make it easier to combine with other ingredients.

- For a smoother texture, blend the dried coconut meat in a food processor before mixing.

- To make the macaroons more uniform, use a small cookie scoop to shape them.

- Refrigerate the mixture for about 10-15 minutes before shaping into macaroons. This helps them hold together better.

- Feel free to add a handful of mini chocolate chips or a sprinkle of finely chopped nuts for extra texture.

- For a different flavor twist, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or a few drops of peppermint extract.

Your rich raw chocolate coconut macaroons are now ready to be enjoyed! These sweet, chewy delights are perfect for an after-dinner treat or a snack to share with friends. Not only are they delicious, but they come together with minimal effort and no baking required. Store them in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to a week.
