From Self Magazine. Oats replace part of the coconut to make this lowfat yet still satisfying.
Ingredients:
pam cooking spray
10 egg whites
2 cups unsweetened dried shredded coconut
2 cups plain quick-cooking oats
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons bittersweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon butter
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350. Spray 3 baking sheets with Pam; set aside.
2. Stir egg whites, coconut, oats, vanilla, sugar, and salt in a bowl until well blended.
3. Drop tablespoons of dough onto baking sheets, half an inch apart. Bake macaroons until light golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
4. Place morsels and butter into a glass bowl. Microwave on high until chocolate melts completely- 40 to 50 seconds. Dip a spoon into the melted chocolate and drizzle over cookies in a zigzag pattern.
5. Cool completely. Store in an air-tight container for up to 3 days.
