Ingredients

3 1/4 cups (10 oz/300g) shredded coconut sweetened
7 ounces/225 g sweetened condensed milk 1/2 of a 14 ounce can
1/2 cup (3 oz/90 g) chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl combine together sweetened shredded coconut with exactly 7 ounces of weighed sweetened condensed milk (resist the urge to add the whole can or more than 7 ounces, cookies will melt).
Using a tablespoon sized cookie dough scoop, scoop the coconut mixture and pack it into the scoop but don't overload it. Drop onto the baking sheet.
Bake for 10-15 minutes until the cookies are lightly browned. Remove from oven but keep the cookies on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes to set.

To Make Chocolate Drizzle

Melt the chocolate chips in a small bowl in the microwave. Cook for 30 seconds then stir the chocolate chips vigorously. Cook for an additional 15 seconds and stir again. Cook for 15 seconds at a time until chocolate is completely melted being sure to stir between each. Spoon the melted chocolate into a sandwich sized plastic zip bag. Cut a tiny bit off of one corner of the bag. Then drizzle over all of the cookies.

Notes

RESIST THE URGE TO USE MORE THAN 7 OUNCES OF SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK, COOKIES WILL MELT.
Weigh out the sweetened condensed milk to ensure you get the right amount.
Use white chocolate or dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet.
Coconut macaroons will last up to two weeks in an airtight container in the fridge.
