Happy Friday, friends!
Guess what? One week from today is GOOD FRIDAY!
On Instagram today, I’m sharing the video of how we often and easily make MACAROONS 🙂 .
You guys, we are macaroon people. My family would pick a macaroon at a bakery over a normal cookie any day of the week. We love them so much that we even have a dog named Frenchie Macaroon 🙂 .
This is my “normal” and super easy macaroon recipe with some spring sprinkles should you need a quick and delicious Easter (or spring!) treat. Bonus, these are easy to make gluten-free too. We’ve found that simply substituting a good gf flour (we love Namaste) allows you to follow the directions exactly and produce delicious results.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend! xx

Description
This is my “normal” and super easy macaroon recipe with some spring sprinkles should you need a quick and delicious Easter (or spring!) treat! Bonus, these are easy to make gluten-free too if you simply substitute a good gf flour (we love Namaste).
Ingredients
- 5½ cups sweetened flaked coconut
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour (we use gf)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 (14oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 8 oz vanilla almond bark
- Easter/spring sprinkles
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
-
Spray your cookie sheet with Pam or line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine coconut and flour with a wooden spoon. Stir in your salt, condensed milk and vanilla.
-
Drop by the two tablespoons full on to your parchment paper.
-
Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly brown and toasted.
-
Remove from oven to cool one minute while you’re preparing the almond bark
-
Microwave the almond bark, stirring every 45 seconds until smooth. Drizzle your melted almond bark down over each macaroon and then go back and quickly add sprinkles on top (the almond bark will set quickly).
-
Serve either warm or room temp. Store in an airtight container on the counter.
Notes
Almond bark is sold on the chocolate chip aisle and typically comes in a 24oz package (with 12 squares each 2 ounces a piece). You only need 4 squares. You can use a vanilla candy coating too…sold in the same type of package. They’ll both work just fine. Enjoy!
