I heart macaroons! French or coconut, I swoon over their deliciousness. Because these little treats are hard to come by locally here, I decided to attempt the art of making these bad boys in my kitchen eek!<\/i> So….I found what appeared to be the simplest recipe from Williams-Sonoma<\/a> and gave it a go! And then had a little fun jazzing up these scrumptious little nuggets for Easter with colorful Cadbury eggs!<\/div>\n
<\/a> <\/div>\n
Okay, I have to admit, my first batch was a TOTAL flop. They looked more like a pancake the first round, but I tried again and found a few key things: be sure to beat egg whites pretty good before incorporating with other ingredients and do refrigerate mixture for a good 30 minutes before sticking in the oven.  
\n 
\nHere is the recipe from Williams-Sonoma<\/a>: 
\n 
\n3 1\/2 cups sweetened shredded dried coconut 
\n3\/4 cup sugar 
\n5 egg whites, lightly beaten 
\n1 1\/2 tsp. vanilla extract 
\n1\/4 tsp almond extract 
\n8 oz. bittersweet or semisweet chocolate (I used morsels) 
\n 
\nFor the easy-peasy directions to these delicious coconut mounds of goodness, click HERE<\/a>.  
\n 
\nLooking forward to celebrating Jesus on Sunday…wishing you all a wonderful and very Happy Easter!  
\n 
\nAnd maybe a few Cadbury Eggs too : )
