Filipino Coconut Macaroons

April 30, 2014

There are some sweets that I don’t make on monthly basis, but there are some sweets that I love to include on my menu on monthly basis like Filipino Coconut Macaroons.

Filipino Coconut Macaroons is one of the snacks I grew up with. It is sweet, chewy on the inside but crisp outside. It is a kind of snack that I am sure coconut lovers would love so much! They come in minis but huge on flavor.

These tiny coconut macaroons is one of the sweets I usually make when my friends come over. I pack them in transparent pouches and seal it with ribbon – it looks so cute!

I only get them before from the bakeries and now I am happy that I’m able to enjoy them anytime. Thanks to Lalaine for the inspiration.

I don’t usually find them with raisins, but the ones my late mom liked and used to bring home was with raisins. I kinda used to the feeling that Filipino Coconut Macaroons is not complete without raisins.

I’ve shared a recipe video on my YouTube channel. I hope you can check it out. If you like this recipe and video, please don’t forget to like, share and subscribe.
