I've been using this recipe for years. I must say that I can't stand coconut....but I LOVE these cookies! The only trick is removing them from the pan immediately after they come out of the oven because they do get sticky. But they're well worth the trouble.

This is the best macaroon recipe ever. It is so simple to make, and deliciously chewy without being hard. It retains it's moisture extremely well. A big plus is that it's not just another cookie, and it stores well.

These are the best macaroons I've ever tasted. They are so easy to make, and they taste delicious. I keep getting asked to make more!

I think this is a good recipe though I increased the coconut for a denser texture.

Wonderful! I wanted to make my parents some travel goodies and these turned out great. I took the advice of others and reduced the heat to 325 and cooked for about 20-25 minutes. I also refrigerated the mixture for about an hour before forming them with an ice cream scoop.

They're a holiday classic! The photo showed chocolate and it sounded great, so I gave it a shot! Melted chocolate chips, put the melted chocolate in a ziplock bag, cut off the corner and squirted it on. Turned out fabulous! Tasted great and looked even better!

This was very easy to make. I also put mind mixture in the frig for about a hour. I found that baking it on just my well greased cookie sheet worked better then the tin foil. I also added about 1 tsp. of coconut extract to the mixture to. These were really tasty. I'm making another batch for Christmas. The first ones didn't last long. lol

MUCH too sweet (although it was probably partially due to the fact that I used sweetened coconut) and did not stick together while I was taking them off the pan.
