Marvelous Macaroons!

I love to add a few simple mixes to my food storage for convenience as quick comfort foods. One indulgent favorite is Alison Pantry’s Marvelous Macaroon Mix. It only requires hot water, so it couldn’t be simpler, but the finished product is a decadent, chewy coconut treat.  If you have teenagers, it makes for a  fast treat to mix up for late-night studying, without messing up the kitchen.  As a variation, I like to stir in about 1/3 cup chopped toasted almonds to the batter, and then drizzle the tops of the cookies with chocolate (I used Guittard A’Peels.) when they cool for an Almond Joy flavor.
