In UK we have French macarons, but also macaroons ... which are one of two distinct types of biscuit, both with the same name -- one made of almond and one made of coconut, although the latter is more like a flat cake.

Those both in USA too, same spelling.

There are also Scottish macaroons, which are covered in chocolate and desiccated coconut: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=scottish+macaroons&t=h_&iax=images...
