This recipe allows me to satisfy my coconut cravings. It’s simple yet a little tricky because coconut is easy to burn while cooking. So, it is important to monitor constantly while baking. To avoid burning macaroons, I put them in muffin tins to make bigger macaroons. This also helps to prevent the cookies from burning.
