Macaroons in Minutes



Who knew macaroons were so simple to make? I guess it's been years since I've made them. They go together in just minutes (if you don't count the 35 to 45 minutes of baking time). And even the littlest of kids can help, squishing the first three ingredients together in the bowl with their (clean) hands.

COCONUT MACAROONS

7-oz. package shredded coconut

1/3 c. flour

1/8 t. salt

2/3 c. sweetened condensed milk

1 t. vanilla

Mix first three ingredients in medium bowl. Stir in sweetened condensed milk and vanilla and mix well. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto greased (or parchment paper-covered) cookie sheets. (I actually fit all mine on just one sheet, since these don't spread much.) Bake at 250 degrees until golden brown, about 35 to 45 minutes. (Mine took 45.) Makes 24.

Ready for tomorrow's bake sale, anyone?

Now the real question: What do you do with the bit of sweetened condensed milk that's left over?
