Coconut macaroons are such a simple healthy dessert, and are great for all you coconut lovers out there. I personally don't like coconut, but even I admit these are hay in the needle stack. To use up those extra yolks though, check out my Greek yogurt Hollandaise sauce below: https://s.samsungfood.com/g24ki
