These are a variation on the classic coconut macaroons made with meringue. The whole eggs make them richer and, somehow, a little less sweet. Another wonderful Jayne Sutton recipe.
Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees.
In the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade, pulse the coconut about six or eight times at 1-second intervals to chop, not grind, it.
