FIRST-PLACE COCONUT MACAROONS
These coconut macaroons are my husband's favorite and earned me a first-place ribbon at the county fair. I especially like the fact that this recipe makes a small enough batch for the two of us to nibble on without lots left over. -Penny Ann Habeck, Shawano, Wisconsin

- Using a small scoop (about 1 tablespoon), scoop out the coconut batter onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets. Be sure to press the tops down just a little so the centers can cook.
- Bake until the coconut is toasted, 12 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool on the pans.
- Dip the bottom of each cooled macaroon in the melted milk chocolate, and lightly roll in pistachios. Return to the baking sheets and let set. Squeeze fresh orange juice and sprinkle orange zest over the tops.
