- 1/8 tsp salt

Instructions
For the Keto Macaroons
- Preheat oven to 320°F (160°C). Line a big baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix together the coconut and sweetener and set it aside.
- Separate the egg white from the egg yolk and put the white into a large bowl. Add the cream of tartar and salt to the egg white. Whip the egg whites with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. This should take around 3-5 minutes.
- Carefully fold in the shredded coconut and sweetener to the egg whites being careful not to over mix too much. Take a mini cookie scoop or a 1 tablespoon measuring spoon and scoop small portions of the cookies, carefully shaping them into balls as you go. Place them on your baking tray with about 1 inch in between each macaroon.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes until they are just begin to brown and are firm to the touch.
OPTIONAL - Chocolate Drizzle
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, add the sugar-free chocolate. Melt for 30 seconds in the microwave. Stir and continue to melt in 15 second intervals, stirring every 15 seconds, until all the chocolate has melted.
- Using a fork, dip the fork into the melted chocolate and drizzle it over each macaroon. Before the chocolate hardens, sprinkle any leftover coconut funfetti over each macaroon.
Notes
- You can use plain unsweetened coconut instead of funfetti coconut
