These are just lightly sweet and have no leavening or flour. This is a very simple coconut macaroon recipe that uses only 4 ingredients.
Condensed milk gives it a richer flavor than most.
If you prefer a more cake-like cookie increase the flour slightly and decrease the conrn flakes slightly. This is a recipe that we made on the farm in the 30's. It is a delicious coconut macaroon. Nice Christmas cookies. Quick, easy and delicious.
