These cookies are called so because you can make them up before you go to bed and leave them to bake slowly in the switched – off oven. There they are in the morning, lightly crunchy in the outside and deliciously soft in the middle. Read more A wonderful start for the day!!

These look great. I will substitute the coconut for myself, but leave it for the family. Is there something you can't bake?

I should make these tomorrow night! Macaroon cookies are the best. I love your addition of almonds or hazelnuts and cherries. I haven't tried that before. This sounds like another great recipe from you! Thank you for posting it! (Ahmed, do we use almonds or hazelnuts?)(Or both?)

What a cool idea! Caster sugar... is that powdered sugar? I'm being lazy and not looking it up in my cooking reference....
