Coconut Macaroons

I am not a huge coconut fan. But these are delicious and moist and oh-so-pretty to look at.

They smell amazing and that amazing aroma lingers in your kitchen for a while too. I may make these just before the next set of house guests arrive -- they are the aromatic equivalent of "Welcome!".

These are delicious but very sweet. I tend to make them much smaller than the suggested size because of this. I don't like that liquid pools around the bottom of these while they bake, and find it necessary to pull this extra part off before serving. I'm not so sure why this happens.

Sometimes I dip or drizzle them in semi-sweet chocolate. Always a hit!
