Double Chocolate Coconut Macaroons


7 oz chopped chocolate
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
3 large egg whites
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp coconut extract
2 1/2 cups sweetened flaked coconut

Melt 5 oz chocolate til smooth. Cool a little. In bowl, whisk sugar and cocoa. Whisk in whites, salt, vanilla and coconut extract. Whisk in chocolate mix. Fold in coconut and rest of 2 oz chocolate. (If the mix is too warm, refrigerate til cool so the remaining added chocolate doesn't melt.) Chill til firm enough to scoop.

Put oven rack to upper-middle position. Preheat to 350F. Line baking sheets with non-stick liner. If using parchment, grease.

Using scoop or tablespoon, portion batter and space evenly. Form into mounds. Bake til set and center doesn't look raw. 13-15 min. Cool on pan 10 min and let finish cooling on cooling racks.
