Made with coconut, these are bordering on macaroon status??? but the prep is the same as a macaron so I'm torn???. I read a blog post on one of the Australian daily newspaper websites recently about food trends that the author thinks are past their use-by date. I decided to make Pineapple Coconut Macaroons or as my husband calls them "Pina Colada Macaroons." I wasn't going to post the recipe right away, but then someone asked for the recipe so they could make them for an upcoming event and who am I to deny them the ability to wow people with such a great treat?! Make a small indent on the top of each macaroon and gently press a maraschino cherry in the indentation. Remove from oven and allow to cool on wire rack.
