Chocolate Drizzled Coconut Macaroons
I’m a firm believer in everything in moderation. If I’m craving something sweet, I’ll eat a cookie or a dessert because life is short. Of course, you shouldn’t eat the whole batch, because too much sugar is not a good thing. Other favorites are Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Lace Cookies, Peppermint Meringues and No Bake Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cookies.
I’ve been using only raw sugar these days, so the color may not be as white, but they worked out just fine. These are gluten-free and Passover-friendly, hope you enjoy!

Macaroons are a coconut-based, sweet and chewy cookie with lots of texture while macarons are a meringue-based delicate cookie that ranges in a large variety of flavors and fillings.
Do coconut macaroons need to be refrigerated?
No, if you’re eating the cookies within the first couple of days there is no need and keeping them in a container will be fine. But, if you plan on eating them over the course of 2 weeks or so, then I would keep them in the fridge to keep its’ moisture.
