Coconut Macaroons

This is another favorite from Goldilocks bakeshop – Macaroons. Wikipedia explains that the word Macaroon came from the Italian maccarone or maccherone which is derived from ammaccare, meaning crust or beat. It is a small, light baked cake or cookie which is originally consisting of ground almonds. There are varieties of macaroon in other countries like in America, Spain, India, and others but the one that we have in the Philippines is something very tasty and easy to prepare.

Goldilocks bakeshop popularized this small sweet cake but a lot of bakery stores and local bakeshops sell them too.
