macaroons
Chewy coconut cookies
Macaroons are small, sweet baked goods.
The word covers two distinct confections: dense, chewy cookies made primarily from shredded coconut, egg whites, and sugar—common in American bakeries—and the French macaron, delicate sandwich cookies of almond meringue with filling.
The spelling macaroon traditionally covers both, though macaron now often distinguishes the French version.
