Steps:

• Preheat oven 350 degrees F.

• Process until mixture is finely ground and well combined.
• Put egg whites in the clean bowl of electric mixer.
• Set the bowl in a skillet with 1 to 1 1/2 inces of hot water.
• Place over low heat and beat constantly with a whisk until warm and frothy.
• (This will happen almost immediately; be careful not to overheat, or the whites will cook).
• Transfer the bowl to the electric mixer, which has been fitted with the whisk attachment.
• Add the salt to the whites and beat at high speed until they become white and thick.
• With the machine running, add remaining 1 cup sugar in a steady stream and continue to beat until thick and shiny.
• Add the honey and both extracts and continue to beat until stiff (the mixture will look like thick, shiny melted marshmallows).
• Remove the bowl from the machine and using a sturdy rubber spatula, fold in the ground coconut mixture and 2 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut.
• Combine gently but thoroughly.
• Using a medium-sized ice cream scoop, scoop macaroon batter onto prepared baking sheets, in 3 rows of 3 per sheet.
• Using your fingers, place a good pinch of the sweetened premium shred coconut on top of each mound, spreading gently to cover.
• To correct the shape of a mound, use your fingers to gently prop up and round the batter, which will be soft.

Steps:

• Position racks in the top and bottom of the oven and heat oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites, salt and sugar until creamy, thick and white. Whisk in 1 tablespoon of the oil and the vanilla.
• Fold in the flaked and shredded coconut and the flour, mixing well so the coconut is evenly moistened. At this point, the macaroons can be baked, but you can also refrigerate the mixture in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
• Use a small 1-ounce cookie scoop to portion the coconut mixture (about 2 tablespoons per macaroon) and squeeze together in a ball. Space a few inches apart on the prepared sheets and rough up the texture a little with your fingers.
• Bake, switching the pans from back to front and top to bottom, until golden on the bottom and toasty all over, 16 to 21 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer the macaroons to a cooling rack close together. Set the rack over one of the baking sheets (keep the parchment on) to catch chocolate drips during drizzling. Cool the macaroons completely.
• Melt the chocolate with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil in a small saucepan over low heat and stir well. Drizzle the macaroons with the chocolate. Let the chocolate set a little in a cool place or in the refrigerator before topping with flaky salt. The macaroons can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 1 month.
