MacarOns, however, are delicate, little, light and airy European sandwich cookies that have a meringue base.
Just to be clear, the primary ingredient in macarOOns is shredded coconut.

These clementine coconut macaroons are right on the mark! And a drizzle of semi-sweet chocolate is the perfect accompaniment.īut before I give you some tips for making them, I need to get something off my chest… Folks, macaroons and macarons are NOT one and the same! Their names are not interchangeable, though you’d think so based on the sheer number of macaron Pins that surfaced when I searched for “macaroons” on Pinterest. This year I thought it would be fun to infuse the two traditions into one with a cookie recipe that perfectly highlights the sweet citrus flavor of Cuties clementines. Watching for the first appearance of fresh and ripe Cuties in grocery stores is a family tradition in and of itself. I mean, what’s not to love?! Sweet, seedless and perfectly portioned, Cuties are the ideal anytime snack. Given the choice between a sweet and juicy Cuties clementine and ALL of the other seasonal holiday delicacies, nine times out of ten I’m going for the Cuties! Yes, I really do love them that much… We’re HUGE fans of these delicious little sunshine-infused citrus fruits. RELATED: Clementine Winter Fruit Salad Recipe
