This week I have learned that if you still do not have a holiday mood you just need to start baking. Find a few cookie recipes, turn on your favorite Christmas movie (mine is Love Actually) and start creating your good mood with your own hands! And that is exactly what I did. Works 100%, proved and tested by me. Please share with me you favorite holiday movies, I would love to add them in my watch list!
In my opinion, homemade coconut macaroons should be sweet, moist, and chewy on the inside and beautifully golden and crisp outside. These goodies are meet all the requirements. You know what, they are even better, because the last minute I have decided to add one finishing touch and dip them into melted bittersweet chocolate. That is a very delicious accent. I want to add these cookies to my annual Christmas cookie box, which I will give to my friends right before Christmas night. However, I need to create about four more recipes. The people who now me can tell that I always make a lot of different deserts. Well, I just love when you have a good choice. The last good thing about coconut macaroons is that they are very simple to make at home, even if you are new to baking. And there is absolutely no chance you can ruin this dessert (just please, do not forget it in the oven) =)
P.S. You can make these cookies eggless if you want. The first time I baked them I completely forgot to fold the whites, and the cookies were still great.
