Looking for an easy way to make your life a little sweeter? Then you definitely want to give these tasty morsels a try – ginger coconut macaroons. We love this recipe because it makes for denser macaroons and the candied ginger is that extra pop of flavor that takes these cookies to the next level of deliciousness.
Candied ginger is our secret ingredient; it adds a little sweet spiciness that really goes well with the coconut. Something else that is so great about our coconut macaroons is how easy they are to prepare! One bowl of ingredients, a brief bake in the oven, and out pops a cookie that is sweet, chewy, a little crunchy, and 100% heavenly. If you’re looking for a cookie that’s a little different and extra amazing, then we’ve got just the treat for you in these amazing coconut macaroons!
