I have been carrying this recipe around for so many years that the paper is yellowed and dog-eared. It is on a page torn from some magazine and listed as a Famous Fannie Farmer candy/cookie. This recipe makes 18 macaroons at about 35 calories each - 1 gram of fat each.
Ingredients:
1 egg white
8 tablespoons sugar, divided
1 cup corn flakes
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
salt, to taste (a very small amount)
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl beat the egg white gradually adding 2 TBLS of the sugar until stiff.
2. Stir in the remaining 6 TBLS sugar and remaining ingredients.
3. Place by rounded measuring teaspoonfuls on greased cookie sheets.
4. Bake in preheated 350*F oven for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
5. Makes 18.
