Disneyland’s Matterhorn Macaroons Recipe
These Matterhorn Macaroons are so tasty, and so easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract
- ½ teaspoon coconut extract
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 2 cups flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1½ cups white chocolate chips
- Clear sprinkles and powdered sugar for decoration
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- In a large bowl combine and mix, with a hand mixer, your butter and sugar until fully combined.
- Then add your vanilla, almond extract, coconut extract, salt, coconut and flour.
- Mix until well combined.
- Shape the dough into tall towers that have a rounded point at the end. (I had to shape mine into pretty tall towers because they shrink down a little when you bake them).
- Place on a cookie sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cookie begins to turn slightly golden.
- Take out of oven and let cool completely.
- Melt the white chocolate chips (30 second increments in a microwave stirring in between).
- Dip the cooled macaroons into the white chocolate, dipping only half the mountain.
- Sprinkle powdered sugar and clear sprinkles over the white chocolate before it fully hardens.
- Let the white chocolate set before eating!
- Enjoy!
