Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 150 g Flour
  • 100 g soft butter or
  • 7-10 Tbsp Margarine
  • 50 g Sugar
  • 1 package Vanillin sugar
  • 1 Egg yolk (size M)
  • 2 Protein (size M)
  • 125 g Sugar
  • 1 TEASPOON Lemon juice
  • 160 g Coconut flake
  • 1 package (100 g) candied cherries
  • 7-10 Tbsp Cling film
  • baking paper

Directions

  1. 1

    Put the flour, soft fat, sugar, vanillin sugar and egg yolk into a mixing bowl. Knead with the dough hooks of the hand mixer to a crumbly dough. Then quickly knead with your hands to a smooth short pastry, wrap in foil and refrigerate for about 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Roll out the short pastry thinly on a floured work surface. Cut out circles with a round cookie cutter (approx. 6.5 cm Ø). Use a small mould (approx. 2.5 cm Ø) to cut out small circles in the middle.

  3. 3

    Knead dough remains together, roll out again and cut out further rings until the dough is used up. Place rings on a baking tray lined with baking paper. For the coconut macaroon mass, beat the egg white until stiff.

  4. 4

    Then stir in the sugar bit by bit. Finally add lemon juice and loosely fold in the grated coconut. Pour into a piping bag with a perforated spout and squirt the mixture onto the rings. Halve the candied cherries and cut them into narrow strips.

  5. 5

    Decorate macaroon rings with it. Bake in the preheated oven (electric: 150 °C / gas: level 1) for 30-40 minutes. Results in about 22 pieces.
