Almond Joy Macaroons! Easy 3 Ingredient Recipe!
Do you have a food that you can not live without? You think about it, crave it and would put it on everything. Well, I like to call that food crack. And, unfortunately, I have a new food crack, something so yummy it will cause our family to fight over the last little bit. Hershey’s Chocolate Almond Spread. I am a sucker for chocolate covered almonds and this stuff just makes my addiction that much worse.
I first purchased it just to see what they hype was all about, and I am so glad that I did. I put it on a banana to taste test it, and it was AMAZING! Then shortly after cracking open the jar of goodness, Hubby came home. I knew there would be a fight over this one. He is a chocolate junkie, and I knew that he would want some, and I did not want to share! But, I broke down and gave him a taste. Long story short, there wasn’t much left in the jar after he got a hold of it.
So, I decided I need to act quick so I could take advantage of the rest of the yummy goodness. I decided to make macaroons and then drizzle some of the remaining chocolate on top. Hubby doesn’t like coconut, so I thought it would be a total win for me….. NOPE! Apparently he now loves Macaroons as long as they have Almond Chocolate Spread on them. I am pretty sure he would eat anything as long as it had this stuff on it. 
These macaroons were transformed into something that tasted a lot like an Almond Joy, but without the hard almonds. They are amazing! Who would have thought Almond Joy Macaroons. These are super simple, and only require 3 ingredients!

Great recipe, I can’t wait to try it!
This looks so good! I’ve been wanting to try the new Hershey’s spread, this will be perfect 🙂
I adore macaroons and yours look so tasty.
Oh my gosh, these look so amazing! Totally drooling. As for my food crack, it would have to be Nutella. Or just any chocolate in general 🙂 Found you on the Let’s Get Real Friday linky!
Lucky me! I LOVE coconut, chocolate, and Almond Joys. 🙂 I found you vie Eat. Create. Party and have already pinned this recipe.
