What a lovely flavoured macaroon this recipe makes. We loved them, they had great flavor and wonderful texture. The cookies that I made didn't look lovely like yours, but they sure tasted great. I'll have to work at it some more... what a hardship. Thanks for sharing this lovely recipe Bonnie, which I will make again. Made for Autumn Fever - 2019.

A simple and easy recipe for the coconut lovers such as myself. I drizzled a tiny bit of chocolate over each one as I was bringing them to a baptism brunch and wanted to jazz them up a little bit. Thanks Bonnie~
