Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325° F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Heat the coconut butter, cacao powder, coffee, and maple syrup over medium heat. Stir often, until the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and fold in shredded coconut and sea salt.
Scoop up the macaroon mixture, using a #60 cookie scoop, packed tightly, but level. Release onto the sheet pan, using your fingers to help it keep it’s shape if need be. Continue with the remaining macaroon mixture.
Bake for 15-17 minutes before removing from the oven. Cool on a wire rack, if you can wait that long.
