Finally, I’m posting the recipe for my most requested Filipino coconut macaroons! Every time there’s a get together or party, I’m always asked if I make this. It’s actually one of the first sweets that I learned to bake since I came to the US. When I was growing up, we didn’t have gas stove, let alone an oven, so I really didn’t know baking until I got married and moved here.
If you love coconut macaroons, try this one. You will not regret once you take your first bite. It’s soft and chewy and bursting with the goodness of coconut, butter, and milk. Everyone who tried this so far has only positive things to say, so that gives me confidence you’ll like it too!

1 pack sweetened coconut flakes, 14 oz ( or 1 ¾ cup)

½ cup brown sugar
½ cup raisins (optional)
