How to make Besitos de Coco (Coconut Macaroons) - Easy Puerto RIcan Recipe
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
We certainly love our coconut desserts in Puerto Rico, and of course we have our own version of the well-known coconut macaroons. We call them "besitos de coco" or coconut kisses. They are so easy to make and we even added a cherry on top!
Check out our blog with ingredients and step-by-step description here: www.jeffandjopr.com/post/besi...
Ingredients:
3 cups of shredded coconut (sweetened)
⅔ cup or 7 oz of sweetened condensed milk
Pinch of salt
1 egg white at room temperature
Maraschino cherries for decoration
*For cakier macaroons, add ⅓ cup of all purpose flour.

Would not recommend since it is very sticky.
Hi ! I just tried them at 325 for 7 minutes instead and they were already turning brown at the bottom. I’m afraid to bake them at another 7 minutes for fear of burning them like they did the first time I baked them at 10 minutes. What am I doing wrong ?

Hi Michele, so sorry to hear that. Can you try baking them on the top rack? Sounds like your oven is running really hot on the bottom. Also, are you using parchment paper or a silicone mat?
