Pina Colada Macaroons

(from Ryan77’s recipe box)

a variation on Joanne Fluke’s Papaya Mac Cookies.

Categories: Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1/2 can (7 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 1/2 cups (7 ounces) unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 tsp Malibu (Coconut Rum)
  • 1/2 cup chopped dried pineapple
  • 2 tbsp Malibu

Directions

  1. In a bowl mix the dried pineapple and the 2 tbsp of Malibu – you want enough so all the dried pineapple is in some rum, but the top layer should not be submerged. Let sit overnight ( you could probably get away with a couple of hours, but overnight is best).

  2. Preheat the oven to 325F

  3. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl. The mixture should be sticky and should stay in shape when formed.

  4. Spoon onto a cookie sheet (I covered mine in parchment paper as the dough is quite sticky). They do not spread so you can place them quite close together.

  5. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes. They should be soft, but feel dry on the outside and the coconut on the top of the cookie should be starting to become a golden brown.

  6. Cool and enjoy!
