I'm not a fan of dried fruit, so I used chocolate chips instead. They turned out great!

I'm allergic to nuts, so I had to leave them out of my macaroons. They were still good, but I think they would have been better with nuts.

These macaroons are really expensive to make. I don't think they're worth the price.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my macaroons turned out really crumbly.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my macaroons didn't turn out as well as I hoped. They were a bit dry.
