Prep: 5
Cook: 8

    Fun and festive Weet-Bix™ and coconut trees will be a hit with all your holiday guests!

    Ingredients

    • 2 egg whites
    • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/4 teaspoon sea sal
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 3 Weet-Bix™, finely crushed
    • 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut, unsweetened

    To decorate (optional)

    • Icing sugar
    • 100g dark chocolate, melted
    • glace cherries

    Method

    1. Step 1

      Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a flat tray with baking paper.
    2. Step 2

      In a large bowl, whisk egg whites, sugar, salt and vanilla until frothy – about 30 seconds. Add Weet-Bix™ and coconut to egg white mixture and stir well.
    3. Step 3

      Scoop rounded tablespoons of batter onto the prepared tray. Leave as mounds, or use wet fingers to pinch tops into tree shapes.
    4. Step 4

      Bake 8–10 minutes until golden. Cool on tray 5 mins then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
    5. Step 5

      For a special touch, dust with icing sugar or melt dark chocolate and drizzle over cooled cookies. Top with a piece of glace cherry before the chocolate sets.

    Tips

    • To melt chocolate, place chopped chocolate in a heat-proof bowl and microwave in 10 second bursts, stirring each time, until nearly melted. Stir well to help melt any remaining pieces. If the chocolate re-sets as you’re using it, repeat the process.
