Preparation
Preheat the oven to 210°C (gas mark 7). In a large bowl, mix the shredded coconut, egg whites, sugar, and vanilla extract with your fingertips.
2
Shaping
Use your hands to roll the mixture into small balls of equal size (you can also make small pyramid shapes). Leave space between the balls to prevent them from sticking together during baking.

Baking
Place in the oven and bake for 5 minutes (do not exceed this time). Remove from the oven and let cool at room temperature.
