Galletitas de coco y cerezas / Macaroon kisses

Published: Nov 14, 2012 · Modified: Feb 13, 2019 by Lizet Flores de Bowen

Me gusta mucho el coco y las almendras. Esta galletita tiene los dos, y con la cereza encima, salen muy ricas.
I like coconut and almonds. These cookies have both, and with the cherries on top, they are just excellent.

⅓ taza de manteca/mantequilla, blanda
88 gramos de queso crema, blando
¾ taza de azúcar
1 yema de huevo
2 cucharitas de jugo de naranja
1-½ cucharita de esencia de almendras
1-¼ taza de harina
2 cucharitas de polvo de hornear-Royal
¼ cucharita de sal
5 tazas de coco rallado, dividido
Cerezas en almíbar, pueden ser rojas y verdes
⅓ cup butter, softened
1 package (3 ounces) of cream cheese, softened
¾ cup of sugar®
1 egg yolk
1-½ teaspoons of almond extract
2 teaspoons of orange juice
1-¼ cups of all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons of baking powder
¼ teaspoon of salt
5 cups of coconut, divided
Candied cherries 
En una fuente grande, batir el queso crema, la manteca y el azúcar hasta que esté cremoso. Añadir la yema de huevo, la esencia y el jugo. En otra fuente mezclar la harina, el polvo de hornear y sal; gradualmente añadir a la mezcla cremosa de manteca y mezclar bien. Mezclar 3 tazas de coco rallado. Cubrir y dejar enfriar por 1 hora más o menos.
In a large bowl, cream the butter, cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolk, extract and juice. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in 3 cups of coconut. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour.
Hacer bolitas; enrollarlas en el resto del coco. Ponerlas en una fuente no engrasada. Hornear a 180°C / 350°F por 10 a 12 minutos o hasta que estén doradas. Inmediatamente colocar una cereza en el centrode cada galletita. Dejar enfriar por 5 minutos; sacar y poner en una rejilla para enfriar. Salen unas 4 docenas.
Shape into 1-in. balls; roll in remaining coconut. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350°F / 180°C for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately place a cherry on top of each cookie. Cool 5 minutes; remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Yield: about 4 dozen.
