Cravings...

OK, so Im still in the kitchen...hey, it's baking season ;) Ran across a recipe for coconut cornflake cookies - looked interesting...decided to bake them up tonight. I really need to get some shots out of the house....my blip is turning into a food blog ;)

A little complaint - they were virtually impossible to drop onto the baking pan - might have added too much cornflakes...I dont know...but ohhhhh they were wonderful! Will definitely drizzle them with chocolate next time!

The sugar content is a little tricky too - if using sweetened coconut - keep the sugar light - 1/4 to 1/2 cup works great. If using unsweetened coconut - use about 1 cup sugar - adjust to taste.

Coconut Cornflake Cookies

3 egg whites
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2.5 cups flaked coconut (sweetened)
1.5 cups plain cornflake cereal

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Beat egg whites until still (about 3 to 5 minutes).
Stir in sugar+salt+vanilla.
Blend in coconut + cornflakes.
Drop on ungreased parchment paper - bake 15 to 18 minutes.
