Recipe Introduction


Serves: 30. Carbohydrates Per Serving: 1.5. Preparation Time: 20 minutes. Difficulty: Easy


List of Ingredients




4 egg whites, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups granular sugar substitute 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
3 cups grated unsweetened coconut (about 8 ounces)

Recipe



Heat oven to 325°F. Grease 2 baking sheets and dust with Atkins Bake Mix. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat egg whites on low until medium peaks form; gradually beat in sugar substitute and coconut extract; continue beating until stiff peaks form. Fold in coconut. Drop walnut sized mounds of mixture onto prepared baking sheets. Shape into little pyramids with wet fingertips.

Make these a day or two ahead and store in a metal cookie tin. Unsweetened coconut is available in health food stores
