Dipping these macaroons in chocolate adds a touch of decadence to the classic recipe. Coconut oil ensures the chocolate sets with a glossy finish and satisfying snap. On this page, you'll find the full recipe with tips for perfectly dipping and setting the chocolate.
Ingredients
- All base macaroon ingredients
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Steps
- 01Make and air fry the base macaroons.
- 02Let cool completely.
- 03Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil (microwave in 30-second bursts or double boiler). Stir until smooth.
- 04Dip the bottom half of each macaroon into the chocolate. Let excess drip off.
- 05Place on parchment paper. Let the chocolate set at room temperature (20 minutes) or speed it up in the fridge (5 minutes).
Coconut oil in the chocolate keeps it glossy and gives it a slight snap when it sets. Without it, the chocolate can look dull and chalky once cooled. Dip the bottom half only. Fully coating them in chocolate hides the beautiful golden coconut top.
