Ingredients

4 large egg whites

1/2 cup sugar

1 tbsp pure vanilla extract

5 cups shredded sweetened coconut

3/4 cup diced fresh strawberries

1/2 cup melted dark or semi-sweet chocolate

Directions

Set your oven to 325. In a bowl or stand mixer add your eggs, vanilla and sugar and beat until foamy. Fold the coconut into the mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 30 mins. Next, chop your strawberries into small pieces and pat dry with a paper towel so they aren’t too wet. After 30 mins fold your strawberries carefully into the coconut mixture. Using a 2 tbsp cookie scoop, scoop the mixture making it compact and place it on a lined cookie sheet. Bake 20-22 mins or until tops are golden. Let them cool completely on the cookie sheet and then drizzle with melted chocolate. Pop the sheet in the fridge for 3-5 mins for the chocolate to harden. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to two months. Enjoy!
