Ingredients
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed coconut milk
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ½ tsp almond extract
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 ½ cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
  • ½ cup sliced almonds
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon mat.
  2. Make the sweetened condensed coconut milk and allow to cool to almost room temperature.
  3. Whisk together the cooled coconut milk, egg white, vanilla, almond extract, and salt. Stir in the shredded coconut, chocolate chips and sliced almonds.
  4. Using a 1 ½ tbsp scoop place mounds of dough onto the prepared sheet pan about 1 inch apart. Using damp fingers press the dough down slightly then bake for 15 minutes until just starting to brown on the edges.
  5. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. The cookies will be fragile when still hot but will firm up during cooling. Store tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to three weeks. May also be frozen for up to 3 months. These cookies are best at room temperature and even better if microwaved for 10 seconds to warm up if storing in the refrigerator. Makes 24 cookies. Each serving is one cookie.
