These coconut macaroons are my favorite cookies.
You need only four ingredients to make these irresistible treats.
Like the coconut-lemon-cake, I love macaroons as a welcome treat on a long run or hike.
Crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside, they make the perfect travel food.
Sharing with friends and family is easy, too, because the ingredient list is manageable, and these cookies are gluten-free, nut-free, and sugar-free.
If you feel creative, you can experiment with different flavors and add ons. How about hiding a few bits of chocolate or dried fruit? Or adding a dash of cinnamon or hazelnut flavoring to the batter?
The options are endless.
