    Coconut Meringue Cookies


    Source of Recipe


    unknown

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
    1 egg white
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 teaspoon almond extract
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon gluten or 1/4 cup all purpose flour
    2 teaspoons Fructose
    2 teaspoons splenda, or 1 packet splenda
    butter

    Recipe



    Beat the egg white until foamy. Add Splenda. Continue
    beating until peaks form. Gently fold in the coconut.
    Butter a pie pan. Using a teaspoon, heap the egg white
    mixture on the pie pan in mounds.gently flatten each mound
    until about 1/2 inch thick-do not try to make them perfectly
    flat.
    Bake at 350 degrees until they are light brown. Cool and
    store in a tightly covered container. Makes about a dozen.

    Fructose is needed in this recipe to provide for the
    browning that is expected on coconut cookies. It forms a
    part of the complex flavor of this treat.
