Makes about 30 cookies
Ingredients
14 ounces sweetened shredded coconut
2 large egg whites
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Holiday nonpareils
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Combine egg whites with sugar and vanilla; add shredded coconut until well mixed. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls (or use a cookie scoop) onto parchment -lined baking sheets. Make a hole in center of each cookie to form cookie into a wreath shape. Sprinkle with nonpareils*.
2. Bake at 350° for 10 - 14 minutes. Rotate pans front to back, and bake 2 more minutes or until coconut begins to brown. Transfer parchment paper with cookies to wire racks; cool completely.
*If using larger decorative sprinkles like holly leaves, press them into cookie wreath during final 2 minutes of baking time so holly leaf retains shape and doesn’t melt and spread.
