These are sooo good, coconut and chocolate...what could be better? I use shredded sweetened coconut for these... Pretty enough for a fancy cookie tray and easy enough to make anytime!

These macaroon kisses are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they are still good. I would recommend using less sugar in the recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of macaroons, but these macaroon kisses are really good. They are not too sweet and they have a nice chewy texture.
