For a richer flavor, try using dark cocoa powder. Toast the coconut flakes lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the oat mixture for enhanced flavor. If the mixture seems too dry, add a tablespoon of milk at a time until it reaches the desired consistency. Store the set macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze them for longer storage.
