Funfetti Coconut Macaroons

This post is in celebration of… SALLY from Sally’s Baking Addiction.

I’m so excited we all get to celebrate her together, because I KNOW you guys love Sally and her website.

I see you making her recipes all of the time, and it’s no wonder why! They’re super fun and always reliable, and Sally herself is just too sweet and incredibly hard working. She’s such an amazing part of our blogging community.

It seems like I *just* published my Chocolate Frosted Sugar Cookie Bar recipe for Sally’s virtual bridal shower, but it’s been years. It’s crazy how fast time goes.

Since we all know Sally still loves sprinkles, that’s our theme for this virtual baby shower! I chose to make Funfetti Coconut Macaroons. They’re stupid easy, super fast to make, and would be perfect on any special occasion dessert table. Scroll down to the bottom of this post to see the other recipes created by all of the other wonderful bloggers joining in for this shower.
