12 Servings:
1-1/4 cups sweetened flaked coconut
1-1/2 cups crispy rice cereal
2 eggs whites
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon coconut extract
1. Preheat the oven to 300ｰF. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
2. In a medium baking pan or shallow baking dish, evenly spread the coconut in a thin layer. Bake, stirring every 5 minutes, until lightly browned throughout, about 15 minutes. Remove and let cool. Raise the oven heat to 350ｰF.
3. In a medium bowl, combine the cooled coconut, rice cereal, egg whites, sugar, vanilla, and coconut extract; stir with a spatula until well combined. Moisten your hands and shape the mixture into walnut-size balls, compacting the balls so that they hold together. Place on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes; cool at least 30 minutes on a rack before serving.
