Coconut Macaroons

This recipe for chewy macaroons was given to me by a friend. They indeed are chewy and delicious and very easy to bake up a batch for an afternoon treat with a cup of coffee.
  • 3 cups coconut, angel flake is my preference
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 can (300 ml) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  1. Combine coconut, flour and salt.
  2. Stir in milk and vanilla.
  3. Drop from a tbsp onto a greased or parchment lined baking pan.
  4. Bake in a 325º for 18 minutes or until golden in color.

    I made coconut macaroons a while back that I were thought were disappointing. Will have to try these because I certainly do enjoy them. Looks YUM

    Thank you for this easy and delicious recipe. I made these today with my daughter in law. To gild the lily, we dipped the bottoms in chocolate and then drizzled the tops. Outrageously delicious!!!

    I have made this recipe so many times!! If I want to get fancy I dip the bottom half of this cookie in melted chocolate. People ask me for the recipe all the time. Thank you for sharing it. It is one of my families favourites!
