THESE COOKIES earned me a first-place ribbon at the county fair. They remain my husband's favorites—whenever I make them to give away, he always asks me where his batch is! I especially like the fact that the recipe makes a small enough batch for the two of us to nibble on. —Penny Ann Habeck Shawana, Wisconsin

I followed this recipe exactly as instructed. I didn't beat the egg whites. I didn't add chocolate or pecans or any other bells and whistles. The macaroons were crunchy around the edges, fluffy and moist on the inside and simply delicious. I mixed everything rapidly in a little bowl, by hand, and popped the dollops into the oven for 20 minutes. Hey presto! Macaroons that would give Earth Fare's a run for their money. My husband loved them. Thank you so much for sharing this -- you deserve that first-place ribbon.

Easy & good. I did whip the egg whites. I got 1 dz. Ping pong ball size macaroons.

Such an easy recipe and without condensed milk, it's a snap! I added an extra TBSP of flour to avoid the liquid spreading at the bottom. They are PERFECT! This is my new 'go to' recipe!

These were lovely, I made a batch for my sewing group, they love macaroons and they said that they were wonderful. My husband "hates" coconut and he ate 3. Would make again for any one who loves coconut. Sent the recipe to my sister and best friend.

This is the recipe I've been looking for as mcheleclow has said don't need concensed milk. Very goood. By the way the batch does need to be doubled when you cook the recipe. The first batch I cook as according to the recipe they were excellent but the egg white seem to run out of the cookie. The next batch I beat the egg white slightly and added a little coconut flavoring alone with the vanilla. They came out perfect and tasted a little better. This is a delicious cookie. The first batch I removed from the oven 1 hour ago and my husband has eaten almost half of the first batch.

These were so, so delicious, but even though I doubled the recipe, it only made 13 (I did drop them bigger then a tsp) and they had to cook at least 10 min. longer. I used this recipe because it didn't call for sweetened condensed milk. I guess next time I'll have to double it again.

This was a quick and easy recipe and absolutely delicious! I will absolutely make this recipe again!

Note: the picture shows the macaroons as much larger than the suggested "rounded teaspoonful." I didn't much care for such small macaroons. So, when I make them again, they will be closer to the size indicated in the photograph.However, they tasted great! I have no problem with the flavor.

This recipe didn't call for pecans??

These were awesome...just the right amount of crispiness on the outside and chewiness on the inside. *I omitted the pecans because I didnt have any and they were still delicious. *Didn't beat the egg whites. I think the recipe size was perfect! If you are someone who tracks your portion sizes then this recipe will make more than enough :)
