Recipe - Freds Macaroons

5 1/3 cup Sweetened flake coconut
3 Egg whites
One half cup Sugar
One fourth teaspoon Vanilla extract

I have a cookbook called "The Kosher For Pesach Cookbook" and the recipes
use both almond and vanilla extracts. The "cookbook is a project of the
Yeshivat Aish HaTorah Women's Organization." I don't do much baking for
Passover except for Horowitz Margaraten Sponge cake mix, which I doctor up
with finely chopped walnuts. This year I would like to try coconut
macaroons. I found this recipe in yesterday's N.Y Times magazine. It's from
Fred's Restaurant, Barney's New York. The recipe uses vanilla extract.
Here's the recipe

Preheat oven to 300F. With your hands mix all ingredients together. Make
clumps about One half inch in diameter and about 1 inch high. Place clumps about
1 inch apart on a parchmentlind baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes. Makes
about 40 macaroons. Posted to JEWISHFOOD digest V97 #114 by
