Our Disclaimer (The serious stuff)

By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

Cream Sherry, Port Wine, and Moscato d'Asti are great choices for Coconut Macaroons. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. You could try NV Solera Cream Sherry. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 17 dollars per bottle.

NV Solera Cream Sherry

The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F
  2. In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment on high speed, mix egg whites for about 3 minutes until very frothy
  3. Slowly add the sugar along the edges of the mixer during the whisking process.
  4. After all the sugar has been added, continue to whisk for another 2 minutes (egg whites will look like marshmallow fluff).
  5. Add the lemon zest. With a wooden spoon or a rubber spatula gently fold in the lemon zest until just combined. Add shredded coconut, gently fold in.
  6. Note: I do not add the lemon zest with the coconut.
  7. I did so the first time and found the lemon zest was clumping together so now I do this individually.
  8. Prepare 2 parchment lined baking sheets.
  9. Using a spoon (an ice cream scooper will deflate the meringue), pick up about a tablespoon of the meringue and pack it lightly (kind of like a meatball) just so it holds a shape.
  10. Place macaroons about an inch apart.
  11. Bake until golden, 25-30 minutes.
  12. Let them cool for 10-15 minutes, or until cool to the touch before dipping.
  13. For the chocolate:
  14. Set a saucepan over medium heat, filled halfway with water. Place a glass, or heatproof bowl on the saucepan.
  15. The bowl should rest directly on the saucepan, though it should not touch the water in the saucepan.
  16. When the water is simmering add the chocolate to the bowl, stirring occasionally, until melted.
  17. Dip the bottoms of the macaroons, then place on cooled lined (to prevent sticking) baking sheets (not a cooling rack).
  18. Refrigerate for about an hour before serving.
  19. Serve chilled.
  20. Will refrigerate well for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
