good flavor - cinnamon really adds a nice taste. Crumbled too easily.

Very nice and easy to make. It was a bit gooey and soft in the middle, but I like it that way.

I followed the directions, but they came out so sticky!! I wouldn't consider them a cookie anymore. The taste was good though...

Mom and I were looking for a wheat and starch-free macaroon and came across this one. We deleted the cinnamon and used vanilla instead of almond extract for a regular sort of macaroon. The parchment is absolutely necessary we found out. We thought that greasing the Air-Bake cookie sheets with butter would do the trick, but the cookies stuck anyway. Fabulous cookies. And wonderful with home-made chocolate icing :) The crumbly bits we scraped off the cookie sheet went great on caramel ice cream, too.

These were delicious fresh out of the oven. Not so great the next day though.

These cookies are really good, but mine were REALLY sweet. I followed the recipe exactly, but the cookies did need the full 25 min and usually at my altitude things cook faster than the suggested time. They would be 5 stars but they were too sweet. Next time I'll try unsweetened coconut or cutting down the sugar or both.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but we didn't eat these. They seperated in the oven, becoming watery.

These did not remind me much of my German family's coconut macaroons. They were appallingly sweet...perhaps it was because the shredded coconut I used was the sweetened variety. The recipe doesn't specify. Still, my 12-year old son liked them. The baking time is much longer than the recipe calls for, I found...probably closer to 35 minutes. A long wait and little reward.
