Peanut Butter Macaroons
Oh my!
These were so good!
Coconut Macaroons dipped in Peanut Butter Candy Melts and filled with mini peanut butter cup candies.
I mean, really! Do I even need to tell you how great these are?
I think I’ve mentioned that Mr. Quart doesn’t “do” coconut. I know, I know… weird-o!
But, because of that, I don’t make a lot of coconut treats.. well, I have made these Coconut Tarts, and these Cookies, and we can’t forget the Pink Macaroons, but my husband won’t come close to them!
I don’t know why he has such an irrational dislike for coconut.
