~ Coconut Macaroons ~

Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups of flaked white coconut
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 can (14 ounce) sweetened condensed milk
3/4 teaspoon of pure almond extract

Directions: In a bowl, toss together the coconut, flour and salt. Stir in sweetened condensed milk and almond extract until blended. (Mixture will be thick and sticky.) Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 3 inches apart on baking sheets lightly coated with cooking spray. Bake at 300 degrees for 18 -22 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool for 2 minutes before removing to wire racks. Keep in an airtight container on kitchen counter or in cupboard.
Another item that would make great gifts!
