Magic snow

I was watching my grandchildren play with the ‘magic’ snow I had bought to keep them amused, when it suddenly reminded me of delicious little cakes I used to have as a child.  We always called them Snowy Mountains and they were cooked on rice paper which I loved to eat.

I was soon out in the kitchen recreating these delicious little bites as I had only just had a delivery the previous day of an enormous bag of shredded coconut.

I whisked two egg whites until stiff and then folded in a cup of organic unsweetened shredded coconut and to sweeten, I used a few drops of vanilla stevia.

I piled teaspoonfuls on to baking parchment and baked for approximately 12 minutes at 350°F until the tips were just tinged.

Cooled on a wire rack.    I missed the rice paper but the Snowy Mountains were just as I remembered them – moist and tasty.   The grandkids loved them too.

Snowy Mountain Coconut Bites

Two egg whites / 1 cup coconut made 10 nice-sized bites.
