Ingredients:  
1/3 cup crushed pineapple in juice, drained
1 ¾ cups unsweetened shredded coconut
1 cup sugar
¾ cup egg whites (from about 5 large eggs), or ¾ cup liquid egg whites
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1/8 tsp salt

Cooking spray

Directions:
In a medium sauce pan, cook the first 6 ingredients over medium-high, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes or until liquid has evaporated and mixture is sticky. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350° with a rack in the center position. Coat a baking sheet w/cooking spray or line it with a silicone baking mat. Scoop out 30 Tbsp-size balls of dough onto prepared baking sheet half an inch apart; press an almond into the top of each. Bake for 20 to 25 min or until golden-brown, rotating pan halfway through. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 1 hr.
In a small, heat-safe bowl, microwave chocolate for 25 seconds; stir. Continue heating in 5-second intervals until melted; spoon over cookies in a zigzag pattern. Allow chocolate to harden before serving.
