Looking for an easy sweet macaroon, but wanted bars, so I used a 9x13 pan lined with parchment, sprayed with butter Pam and left a little edge on the parchment to pull it out. Baked for 25 minutes, cooled for about 5 and pulled it out to cool on a rack. Drizzled with some melted dark chocolate, and refrigerated for a while. Yum.

My friends and family love this recipe, but there are a few tricks. You MUST cook the macaroon on parchment; otherwise, you can't get them off the pan. When cool, I spread melted semisweet chocolate chips on the bottom of the cookies, put them back in the frig on parchment for 15 minutes, and you've got a great macaroon that everyone will want the recipe for! **Another easier way is to fold in ghirardelli 60 %cacao chips into the coconut mix (about 1 cup for a double recipe). They taste amazing and your hands don't get chocolaty when the bottom begins to melt.

As Geechboys' wife, I am spoiled and inept at cooking. I have a short attention span and this recipe is so easy, so good and looks and tastes like you went to a lot more trouble than you did!

I tried this recipe and it worked out horribly, but the second time around my boyfriend made them and they were fabulous! I must have added too much milk.

I added 1/3 cup of flour and followed the rest of the recipe exactly and they were delicious. I baked on silpat cookie sheets, so they were easy to remove. After they cooled, I dipped the tops in melted semi sweet chocolate. The whole family loved them.

I can only give this recipe 2 stars, because although it tasted yummy, it was incredibly hard to remove from the baking sheets. I followed the directions exactly, and ended up with macaroons that were all fallen apart because I tried to take them off the sheets immediately as it says and it was extremely difficult to take them off without them breaking completely apart. I even tried to let them cool just a little bit on the sheets, which was a big mistake because now I have macaroons stuck like super glue to my sheets. I tried baking for a little bit longer and ended up with the same problem, but only with burnt bottoms. Oh well.

These were incredibly easy to make and absolutely delicious. Everyone loved them and asked for the recipe. I will be making these at Passover for sure. I would love to make them with chocolate but am not sure how much melted chocolate to put into the recipe.

This is such an easy recipe! An easier way to measure the ingredients is, a bag of coconut, a can of sweetened condensed milk, and a dash of vanilla

So Easy! Delicious Too! I should've read the servings because the recipe posted only makes 12 cookies - like they lasted that long in my house! I ended up using 1 can of condensed milk, 1 bag of coconut(about 5 1/3 cups) and 2 tsp of vanilla. Baked on parchment paper and made 2 inch in length cookies. Had to also add an additional 3 minutes to baking time in all baking for about 15-16 minutes.

This is a really simple recipe. I gave it 5 stars because it's easy, only 3 ingredients, and takes about 10 minutes for the first batch to be done (of course then it has to cool or you burn your tongue). I do however recommend that you place waxed or parchment paper on your cooling racks so they don't fall through.

Just three ingredients and one bowl!!! These macaroons were super easy. I just made the first batch and they were awesome. The cookies are soft and chewy...not to mention, a bit addictive.Super yummy.
