"Coconut macaroons are super easy to make at home and don't require any previous baking experience. Check out our recipe to find out how quickly you can make these soft, moist coconut macaroons. If you want very round macaroons, make sure you chill the dough long enough before baking. This makes the dough firmer and helps the macaroons keep their shape while baking."
