To create your wonderful Gluten-Free Coconut Macaroons, follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Coconut and Sugar: In a large bowl, combine the shredded coconut and granulated sugar.
3. Add Egg Whites: Stir in the egg whites, ensuring everything is well mixed and the coconut is evenly moistened.
4. Incorporate Flavor: Add the vanilla extract and salt to the mixture, stirring until fully combined.
5. Form Macaroons: Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, form the mixture into small, rounded mounds and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
7. Cool: After baking, remove from the oven and allow the macaroons to cool on the sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Chocolate Dip (Optional): If you’d like, melt chocolate chips and dip the bottoms of the cooled macaroons in the chocolate. Allow the chocolate to set before serving.
