Meanwhile, beat the egg white until stiff and gradually beat in the sugar or powdered sugar, so that a stiff meringue is created.
Stir 50 g desiccated coconut into the chocolate. Put the chocolate mixture with the remaining coconut flakes on the meringue and carefully fold in everything. Use a teaspoon to place small piles of dough on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180 ° C top / bottom heat for about 15-20 minutes.
The macaroons should be crispy on the outside, but still stay moist on the inside!
Makes about 25 pieces.
Note: Prepared with powdered sugar they run wider (cookies), prepared with sugar they stay “dimensionally stable” (macaroons).
