Macaroon

Macaroon is a small, sweet almond-based cookie, traditionally coconut-flavored in modern variants. It is typically chewy with a crisp outer shell and often comes in pastel colors. The term can also refer to a more delicate, meringue-based confection from French patisserie, though in everyday use it commonly denotes coconut macaroons. (2-4 sentences, ~60 words)
