Coconut-Saffron Macaroons
Cardamom and ground ginger infuse these macaroons with alluring fragrance and flavor, and the saffron adds a golden hue. They're the perfect sweet to pair with hot tea or coffee. The cooled cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days; their exteriors will lose their crispness but the flavors will still be fantastic.

Don’t use sweetened shredded coconut or the macaroons will be far too sweet.
