My mother used to buy coconut macaroons from a nearby store when I was a kid. Making them at home always brings back a lot of good memories from my childhood. It is a very simple dessert recipe that is crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. They are delicious but even better when dipped into melted dark chocolate. Not a fan of chocolate? Drizzle caramel sauce on top.

Try these bite-sized treats at home to satisfy your sweet cravings.
