I'm a fellow Camp Blogaway camper. I figured I’d calm my nerves by saying hello to everyone online before this weekend, though it just seems to be getting me more excited (hence the 1:30am comment!) I’m looking forward to meeting you :)<br /><br />~Danni with LambAroundKitty Deschanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10312660200564196599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487738675149547727.post-30388000366640286512011-04-24T22:36:07.641-07:002011-04-24T22:36:07.641-07:00Thanks Nancy.

http://...Thanks. I found on Melissa's website <br />http://www.melissas.com/Products/Products/Dried-Coconut-Chips.aspx<br /><br />that a package of coconut chips weighs 3 ounces. How many packages did you use? I have some old unsweetened coconut and this seems like a very good way to use it, even though of course the cookies won't be as good or as attractive as yours, and so I'm trying to calculate the weight, since obviously the volume will be different.Fayenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487738675149547727.post-15378573901546375882011-04-21T23:01:45.216-07:002011-04-21T23:01:45.216-07:00Good question - about 4 dozen.Good question - about 4 dozen.Nancy Rose Eismanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00132038166491861269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487738675149547727.post-30788204411095641212011-04-21T22:07:39.926-07:002011-04-21T22:07:39.926-07:00They do look scrumptious!

The coconut chips are too large and need to be processed down to more of a flake size. I started with whole almonds and process these down to a finely diced size, not powder. They're not really sticky, but I always put paper between layers of cookies for storing, even though they don't stay stored for long. The main problem with these macaroons is that they're so good you want to eat them all!Nancy Rose Eismanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00132038166491861269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487738675149547727.post-68135965501007812172011-04-21T13:10:28.504-07:002011-04-21T13:10:28.504-07:00Questions:

For the almonds, do you grind them to a powder or mince them so small chunks remain?<br />* Are the macaroons a bit sticky, and is that the reason for separating them with parchment when storing them?Fayenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487738675149547727.post-78935306748085379002011-04-21T13:06:50.924-07:002011-04-21T13:06:50.924-07:00I like making almond macaroons and coconut macaroo...I like making almond macaroons and coconut macaroons, but putting both together and adding chocolate and orange peel - yum!<br /><br />Partial answer to "the lost fifth question": Matzo is the pronunciation in Yiddish, and Matza is the way to say it in Hebrew (with the emphasis on the second syllable).Fayenoreply@blogger.com
