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.
