Coconut Macaroons

I was the kid on Beggars’ Night that would dive for a Mounds candy bar, especially the Almond Joys. Ahhhh, good times! I LOVE coconut and maybe I love sweetened condensed milk even more. Mixing the two together is just heavenly. So, this Easter I made these little beauties for dessert…and they are so easy. Simple ingredients and amazing results.The only ingredients you need are shredded coconut, melted butter, an egg, sweetened condensed milk, salt and vanilla. Oh, before you make these, you MUST have parchment paper to line your baking sheet!Use a 2 tablespoon ice cream scoop to make the perfect macaroon.My son is definitely my sharpest critic. He’s always ready to suggest an improvement and often he’s spot on. When he came over for dinner, I handed him a macaroon and watched his face light up like Phil Rosenthal’s in the Netflix series “I’ll Have What Phil’s Having,” which is a really lovely show, by the way. After a moment, he looked at me and said, “Mom, that could be the greatest dessert I’ve ever eaten!”So when you try this recipe, let me know how much you enjoyed it. I’m pretty sure it will light up your face too!
