Easy Vanilla Coconut Macaroon Mix

Product description

I love coconut macaroons! They're incredibly good and almost effortless to make. All you do is add water and bake.
But I can't help myself. I love to embellish them with jams, fillings, or chocolate. I love chocolate. Chocolate kisses work. 
They're fancy, sophisticated .  . and simple. Just add water, mix, and bake.
And they're worth a lot more than they cost.  You'll make a lot of cookies.
Make them for your loved ones. Make them for your friends. Make them for a special occasion. Make them for the weekend.
You should always have this mix on hand.

Your questions
Are they really that easy to make? Yes! Just add hot water, let sit for ten minutes, and bake. That's it. You can use a pastry bag, but the cookies in the picture were scooped with a cookie scoop. An Ice cream scoop will do.  Or a spoon.
But what if I want to fill them like in the pretty picture?  Find something in the kitchen with a half-inch or so handle. Press it into the cookies, fill the indentations, and bake.
How long should I bake them? It depends on how big you make them and how hot your oven is. Bake them until the edges just start to brown.
Any cautions?  Yes, don't let them cool on the cookie sheet or they'll stick like crazy. Get them off while they're hot.  I prefer parchment paper. That solves the problem.
Anything else? You're going to make a lot of these. Jams work fine, but consider using pastry fillings. They're larger but less expensive to use, and the flavor is more concentrated.  
 

These are thumbprints made with raspberry jam, lemon pie filling, or chocolate kisses.  The pink is made with raspberry flavor and red food coloring.

To make the thumbprints, find a kitchen utensil 1/2-inch in diameter and press it halfway through the cookies. You may need to rinse the handle occasionally.

If you want to impress your friends, use a fancy jam like pomegranate.


What's my favorite? Chocolate. Then it's the lemon filling. I use lemon pastry filling. It's the best lemon filling I know.

"These were so easy to make. The pkg says it makes 3dz but I made mine a little bigger but still got 27 cookies. I baked them the full 12 minutes but I might add another minute or two next time to get a little more browning around the edges. They are one of my favorite cookies and I’m extremely happy how easy this mix makes it to bake them."
"Coconut goodness! Easy to make. Only need hot water! How great is that! Baked mine for 10 minutes. Looked a little too plain. Toasted mine under the broiler till lightly browned. Beautiful! If you like coconut at all, you should try these."
