I saw a recipe in a women's magazine this month, and it called for l/2 cup flour, 1/8 tsp. salt, and it didn't mention the almond extract, but it mentioned everything else that this recipe does. I made it & everyone loved it. I see you don't mention salt or flour in your recipe. I didn't have a problem with any stickiness. I wonder if the flour is helpful for that? Just wondering. Also I use an oil spray and good quality pans.

I just tried this recipe and they came out beautifully. I prefer the loosely put together shape where the flakes poke out here and there and toast a little. Has anyone tried adding a pinch of salt to balance out the sweetness ? Even with unsweetened coconut flakes it's a tad bit sweet for my own taste, but it may be normal for macaroons. Thank you for sharing this recipe. (I tried one with flour and it was dry and dense, rather than chewy and gooey).

They're best dipped in melted semi-sweet chocolate!

love this recipe! I baked mine at 325 for a little over 20 minutes and got a nice toasty outside and chewy inside. Everybody that tries them loves them! Thanks for the recipe!!

This is the first time I've used this recipe, and after reading the reviews I was not sure if I should try it or not. I just took the first batch out of the oven and didn't have any problems with sticking or gooieness. I turned the oven down to 325 as suggested in many of the reviews and let them cook for around 20 mins. I used ungreased parchment paper. The only other thing I did was roll them by hand, then roll them in extra coconut. They turned out beautifully, and smell great! I hope they taste a great as they smell/look.

After I made it the first time by following your instructions step for step, it wasn't till i came back and read other people's reviews and remedies to make it better. I don't want to have to experiment with a recipe for it to work, it would be nice if you had these helpful hints in your directions from the beginning. Happy Cooking and Have a nice day.
