The perfect dessert: traditional Passover sweets that are crunchy on the outside, moist and chewy on the inside. And did we mention they're easy to make?

Ingredients

3 large egg whites
½ cup sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 package (14 ounces) sweetened flaked coconut (5 ⅓ cups)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper (or coat generously with nonstick cooking spray).
In a large bowl, whisk together egg whites, sugar, and salt until frothy. With a fork, stir in coconut until moistened.
Drop mixture by packed level tablespoons onto prepared sheet (cookies will not spread). Bake until lightly golden, 25 to 30 minutes.
