Preparation
Step 1In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites, honey, and salt until foamy. Add coconut and stir to combine.Step 2Line an air-fryer basket with foil, leaving about a 1" overhang on 2 opposite sides. Lightly coat foil with cooking spray.Step 3Tightly pack coconut mixture into a tablespoon measuring spoon. Carefully arrange mounds flat side down in prepared basket, spacing about 1/4" apart. Cook at 320° until set on top and light golden in places, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until flat side is set and dry to the touch, 1 to 2 minutes more. Using foil overhang, carefully remove macaroons from air fryer. Let cool.Step 4Line a small baking sheet or plate with parchment. In a small heatproof bowl, combine chips and oil. Microwave on high, stirring, until just melted and smooth, about 1 minute.Step 5Dip flat side of macaroons into chocolate mixture. Transfer to prepared sheet chocolate side down. Refrigerate until chocolate is set, about 20 minutes.
For a pink, raspberry-infused version, smash 1/4 cup fresh raspberries into the foamy egg white mixture with a fork and then toss in the coconut. Form and fry according to recipe instructions.
