It is a delicious and easy to make snack that you can prepare at home. You can take it to parties or even give it out as a gift. Keep it in a sealed container, so that it stays moist.

If you are planning to take it to a party or give them away, use nice baking cups and packaging.

Ingredients:

3 cups shredded coconut

3 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup butter

1 cup sweetened condensed milk

1/4 cup sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Small paper baking cups

Preheat the oven at 400 degrees F.

In a bowl, combine the coconut, eggs, condensed milk, sugar, salt, vanilla and almond extracts. Mix well and place the mixture in a pastry bag.

Pipe in the filling into the baking cups (up to half). Place the filled baking cups on a tray. Bake it for 20 minutes or until the tops turn golden brown. Let it stand for 5 minutes after baking.

You may sprinkle some grated coconut on the macaroons for garnish if desired. Serve immediately or store in a sealed container.
