- 1/8 tsp sea salt
- 2.5 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Just Date Syrup, vanilla extract, egg whites, and sea salt a large bowl, and whisk together until frothy.

- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the macaroons cool completely on the parchment paper, about 1 hour.
- While the cookies are cooling, use a double boiler or a heat-safe bowl nestled on top of a pot of simmering water to let the chocolate chips heat up and melt.

- Once the cookies are cooled, use a fork to drizzle the melted chocolate over the macaroons.
- Let the chocolate cool and firm up, then enjoy!
