CHOCOLATE CANDY MACAROON COOKIES
This is a divine little treat! You can use just about any small candies, chocolate chips, or even gumdrop minis (okay, so that's not chocolate, but still yummy). Makes a great Easter treat to add to baskets or decorate a serving table. Also try this with candy bars chopped in small pieces. Where's that Snickers bar??? NOTE: Since the first review in June 2009, I have revised the recipe and it works now. :)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Combine flaked coconut, sweetened condensed milk, almond extract, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
- Gently fold beaten egg whites into the coconut mixture until well incorportated.
- Using your palms, surround each M&M candy piece firmly with coconut mixture.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Alternatively, you can use greased mini muffin pans, or regular sized muffin pans for larger candy pieces. Simply fill 2/3 of the way with coconut, then push candy piece down into the center, but not all the way to the bottom. Cover with a bit more coconut mixture.
- Also, you could use an 8x8 pan, half coconut mixture, then candy pieces, then remaining coconut mixture. Bake, cool, and cut into bars.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes or until edges are very lightly browned.
