Coconut Macaroons

1. 1

   Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 300u00b0F. Butter a baking sheet, then line with foil and lightly butter and flour foil, knocking off excess flour.

2. 2

   Stir together egg white, sugar, vanilla, almond extract, and a pinch of salt until combined, then stir in coconut. Divide coconut mixture into fourths, then drop in 4 mounds (about 2 inches apart) onto baking sheet.

3. 3

   Bake until tops are pale golden in spots, 15 to 20 minutes, then carefully lift foil with cookies from baking sheet and transfer to a rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes. Peel macaroons from foil.
