I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my macaroons didn't turn out as good as I expected.

These macaroons are a great make-ahead dessert. I can make them a few days in advance and they're still just as good.

These macaroons are the perfect sweet treat. They're not too heavy and they have just the right amount of sweetness.
