Macaroon Trees

Martha Stewart's Sugar-Dusted Macaroon Trees

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups finely shredded unsweetened coconut

3/4 cup granulated sugar

2 large egg whites, lightly beaten

5 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Thoroughly combine coconut, granulated sugar, egg whites, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl using your hands or a wooden spoon. Form 2 tablespoons of the mixture at a time into 2-inch-tall trees with your hands, using your fingertips to make pointed tops. Transfer each tree to a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them 1 inch apart.

Bake until edges are golden and trees are firm, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet on a wire rack at least 15 minutes. Cookies can be made up to 1 day ahead; dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

Napa Farm House | Stephen Willrich Architecture

What an absolutely beautiful home in Calistoga, California.  I love the neutral palette throughout the home and yard.  The kitchen is seriously stunning with all white cabinets contrasted against rich wood floors and open beamed ceilings.  And could this backyard patio & fireplace get any dreamier?!
