GRANDMA'S CORN FLAKE COCONUT MACAROONS
A fast and easy recipe that is great for mailing to friends and family, festively snowy white, and very tasty with a pleasantly crunchy and chewy texture. This recipe originally comes from my great-grandmother and has been handed down through four generations. My Grandma Sally makes these almost every year for Christmas and it is one of my favorite Christmas cookie recipes. The cookies will be chewy-crunchy when finished cooling, not gooey.

Tips:
- Use fresh coconut: Fresh coconut adds a delicious, tropical flavor to the macaroons. If you don't have fresh coconut on hand, you can use unsweetened shredded coconut, but the flavor will not be as pronounced.
- Toast the coconut flakes: Toasting the coconut flakes will bring out their flavor and make them more golden brown. You can toast the coconut flakes in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Use a good quality maple syrup: Maple syrup is the key ingredient in these macaroons, so it's important to use a good quality syrup. Look for a syrup that is dark and amber in color and has a strong maple flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the macaroons tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the macaroons until they are golden brown: The macaroons should be baked until they are golden brown on the bottom and the tops are set. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
Conclusion:
Coconut corn flake macaroons are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for a party or potluck, or to enjoy as a snack. With their chewy texture and sweet coconut flavor, these macaroons are sure to be a hit!
