      Just the texture I was looking for! These are soft and chewy, just like my old recipe (which I can't find). To me, these are traditional macaroons. Other recipes call for beaten egg whites which yield more of a meringue texture. I omitted the almonds and used vanilla instead of almond extract, just personal preference. All family members agreed they were great and they very easy to make. Thank you!

      I made the Cook's Illustrated Key Lime Pie and needed a recipe for the leftover egg whites (4). Found this and whipped it up in ten minutes. Didn't even have to change the oven temp! Pie came out and these went in. Now I have a lovely dessert for the grown-ups and yummies for the kiddies. Made exactly as written but drizzled a little semi-sweet chocolate over the top as they cooled. Delicious.

      These were probably the best macaroons I've ever eaten. I used all vanilla and omitted almond, and we decided they are better if they get slightly browned on the top. I made them 5 hours ago and we're about to mix up my second batch for Easter! Thank you!

      These are delicious! I just made these this morning. I only had enough coconut to make half of the recipe. I used the almond extract then I divided the mixture in half and put chopped almonds in half and chopped dried cherries in the other half. Could not decide which ones I liked better, So I kept eating and eating them. Now they are all gone and I never did decide which was best. Thanks for a wonderful recipe.

      Delightful cookies! DH especially liked the ones I added chopped, dried cherries to! YUM! Definitely a keeper! I'm wondering how well they freeze. Anyone tried it? Added note: REMEMBER TO GREASE THE PAN!!!!!

      These are perfectly perfect!!!!! I've made a lot of coconut macaroons in my day - searching for just the right texture... just the right recipe. Well, happily, my search is over! These are what I've been looking for. My fellow coconut loving family have all demanded I keep bringing THIS recipe - no other will do now!!! They are soft and a bit chewy - perfect flavor - pure delight!!! I don't really care for almond extract though - so I used the recipe exactly, except that I used vanilla instead. The almonds in this are wonderful though!!! I dipped just the bottoms in melted Ghiradelli (sp?) semi sweet chocolate. Perfection!!!!

      Yummy recipe! I made just as directed with the exception of the almonds. I didn't have any and wanted to make them NOW!! So glad I did! DELICIOUS! I used my small cookie scoop and baked them for 15 minutes at 325 in a convection oven! Simply divine!! Will be making for my Christmas treat boxes this year! Thanks for the wonderful and EASY......with a capital E recipe!!

      Very tasty-- a bit too sweet though. I'll try it with unsweetened coconut next time. We liked these a lot.

      Easy, beautiful, delicious! Once cooled, I dipped the bottoms- some in melted semi-sweet chocolate and some in melted white chocolate and let them cool on wax paper. Great recipe!

      It's nice not to have to whip up the egg whites since I don't have the proper equiptment for that. Great macaroons.

      Oh yum! I'm afraid I'm going to gobble them all up! So good. I separated into batches and made one plain, one with craisins, and one with chocolate chips. Simply yum. Used small muffin cups. NEXT time I'm going to add an almond in the center and coat with hard shell chocolate. Better than Almond Joy's.

      I'm sorry but I didn't really like these. And I'm usually crazy about macaroons! I think it was the chopped almonds that did it. I like almonds too, and I LOVE coconut, but this recipe had almost no flavour! They were chewy, but not a melt-in-your-mouth kind of chewy, more like a soft-plastic chewy! They were better once they cooled off, but I'm just not a big fan of this one. Sorry!

      WONDERFUL! Easy, delicious, chewy, mmmm! Didn't have almond extract, so I used vanilla. Once they cooled, I dipped the bottoms in chocolate and let set on wax paper. Yum!

      These are cooling right now...turned out GREAT! I used the almond extract and baked them at 325 for 14 min. (alternating cookie sheets half way through) in a convection oven. I can't wait to play around with different add-ins/dipping in chocolate etc. Thanks for posting...so easy and yummy! :)...update...I dipped them half way in dark chocolate...very pretty and of course delicious! I wrapped them in celophane paper and gave them to a friend this morning along with her Christmas gift, she thought they were purchased at an expensive bakery!!! Now that's my kind of Christmas cookie...SO, SO EASY AND SO, SO PRETTY! :) (oh, and super yummy too! )
