This is a Filipino staple and makes macaroons that are delicious, soft and chewy. This recipe yields four dozen in mini muffin size.  Forty-eight pieces might sound a LOT but trust us, but when everyone is fighting over them you’d wish you baked more than one batch. They keep well in an airtight container outside of refrigeration for about 3 days and will keep in the freezer for about a month. Makes 48.
