Cornflake Macaroons
- 4 egg whites
- Pinch salt
- Pinch cream of tartar
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup pecan pieces, toasted
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes, toasted
- 1 cup tightly packed corn flakes
- Set a rack in the middle and top third of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F. In a completely clean, dry mixing bowl, with an electric mixer, whisk the egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar until very foamy and almost creamy.
- With the mixer still running, sprinkle in the sugar.
- Continue to whisk on high speed until fluffy, thick, and shiny.
- Whisk in the vanilla.
- Fold in the pecans, coconut, and corn flakes.
- Drop walnut-size balls of batter onto nonstick or parchment-lined cookie sheets at 2-inch intervals.
- Bake for 15 minutes, turning the pans once, front to back, for even baking until lightly tanned and set on the surface.
- Set the cookie sheets on a rack to cool.
