These macaroons are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I was a bit hesitant to try these macaroons because I'm not a huge fan of coconut. But I'm so glad I did! The coconut flavor is actually really subtle, and the macaroons are perfectly sweet and chewy.
