    I love Coconut Macaroons. They're so delicious and easy to make. This particular recipe just uses egg whites so it's lightened up relatively speaking.

    What are Rose Coconut Macaroons?

    Rose Coconut Macaroons are essentially Coconut Macaroons flavored with rose extract and a pinch of cardamom. The rose and cardamom are classic flavors in Indian dessert, hence the inspiration behind this recipe.

    What if I don't have Rose Extract?

    If you are unable to find rose extract, feel free to use rose water. I would use 1 teaspoon of rose water and see if you need a little more.
