If you like Magic Cookie Bars, you are going to love these quick and easy Almond Joy Macaroons, because they basically taste like the top of the bar with no crust.  With only four ingredients they are super simple and come together in just minutes.  We love these best after they have been chilled for a little bit in the refrigerator.

Ingredients:

• 14 ounces sweetened shredded coconut
• 2 cups chocolate chips
• 3/4 cup sliced almonds
• 1 (14oz) can condensed milk

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 325.  Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Combine the shredded coconut, chocolate chips, sliced almonds and condensed milk in a large mixing bowl and toss gently with a wooden spoon until well combined.  (It will take a minute, but it will happen.)
3. Drop by rounded spoonful’s, (I use my small cookie scoop and pack the mixture in there), on to the prepared baking sheets.
4. Bake for 13-15  minutes, or until bottoms and tips of coconut are lightly browned.
5. Cool on baking sheets completely, then store in an airtight container.  (We keep them in the refrigerator.)
