Chocolate Macaroons:
2 c Brown suger
1/4 c Milk
1 ts Vanilla
1 ts Coconut extract
4 c Rolled oats
4 tb Cocoa powder
I used to love the old family chocolate coconut macaroon recipe, but
it's loaded with fat. Recently, however, inspired by the suggestion of
making coconut milk from condensed milk and coconut extract, I came up
with the following modified recipe. It seems to work pretty well,
although the cookies aren't as chewie as the fatted version was.
Mix the suger & milk in a pot and bring to a boil. Remove from heat
and stir in the vanilla & coconut extract, and then the rolled oats and
cocoa. Mix until everything is well coated, will make a very stiff
dough. Spoon out onto a cookie sheet and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
