Immediately slide aluminum foil with cookies from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.6. Heat chocolate chips and oil in 1-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until chips are melted. Drizzle over cookies. Let stand about 30 minutes or until chocolate is set.*If using self-rising flour, omit salt.Types of CoconutDid you know that there are different types of coconut at the grocery store? Both flaked and shredded coconut are available. Flaked coconut is cut into small pieces and is much drier than shredded coconut. In fact, if you squeeze a handful of shredded coconut, it would stick together a bit but flaked coconut, being dry like uncooked rice kernels, would not stick together. Either type works in this macaroon recipe, but shredded coconut will make the cookies more moist and chewy. You may find unsweetened coconut available in some supermarkets, but we do not recommend it in this recipe.NUTRITION FACTS: 1 Cookie Calories 140 (Calories from Fat 70) Fat 8g (Saturated 6g) Cholesterol 10mg Sodium 85mg Carbohydrate 16g (Dietary Fiber 1g) Protein 2g % DAILY VALUE: Vitamin A 0% Vitamin C 0% Calcium 4% Iron 2% DIET EXCHANGES: 1 Starch 1 1/2 FatFrom "Betty Crocker's Complete Cookbook, Everything You Need to Know to Cook Today, 9th Edition."
