These macaroons are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they are still very good.

These macaroons are the perfect combination of chewy and crispy. I love the almond flavor and the hint of orange zest.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe because I'm not a big fan of macarons. But I was pleasantly surprised! These macaroons are so delicious and addictive.
