Ingredients
- 3 cups Shredded sweetened coconut
- 0.75 cups Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Egg whites
- 24 pieces Hershey’s Kisses (unwrapped)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded sweetened coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until thoroughly combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to beat the egg whites until they hold stiff peaks. This may take 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the coconut mixture, ensuring the mixture is evenly combined but not overmixed.
Step 5
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the coconut mixture into mounds onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-17 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the tops are lightly browned.
Step 7
While the cookies bake, unwrap your Hershey’s Kisses and set them aside.
Step 8
Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately press one unwrapped Hershey’s Kiss into the center of each cookie mound while they are still warm.
Step 9
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Once the cookies have cooled, serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
