These where delicous; warm or cold. Denser then the other merigne like 3 egg recipie on this site. I used sprinkles on top, yellow and brown for Thanksgiving. The peppermint was good better than the almond or vanilla flavoring.

Delicious and so simple to make! I had some leftover shredded coconut from a previous recipe, and I was looking for a Macaroon recipe. I left out the candied cherries since it is not the holidays, and they were superb! My husband and I ate them up in less than 2 days! And, they are lowfat/lo-cal which is good for the diet.
