Directions
Golden Coconut Macaroons,Who can resist a pretty little macaroon sitting on a Christmas platter; the hand just goes for them. O-M-G! Macaroons made richer with the use of whole eggs! I am imagining this dipped in bittersweet chocolate (toes curling in anticipation LOL!)… Found this gem in The Washington Post who adapted it from a Jayne Sutton recipe in “Cookies Unlimited,” by Nick Malgieri. Make room on the platters, these little babies are coming on board! Pssst! Super easy to make too! based on the review I made some chnges when I got to this recipe today. They turned out fluffy & chewy (& ORANGE!). I put my changes in parentheses so the original recipe is still here too. I suspect letting the mix sit for an hour would help if using 2 eggs. BTW – I recommend NEVER buying the Hiram Walker’s Pumpkin Spice Brandy – undrinkable in anything but oddly enough worked well here. Go figure. I have enough for Christmas macaroons until… well, a long time.,These were so good that a friend of mine called them “crack-aroons.” He said they were so addictive I must have added crack to the recipe! They did run a bit, but that part, when eaten, added to the yummy-ness (is that a word??)!,These did not turn out for me. They were pretty runny and lacked viual appeal.
