Very tasty, although they came out a little different from what I'd expected.

Not a macaroon as others have said, but a great merangue!
I've made it twice. The first time I did it exact to the recipe and found it very sticky and hard to take off the parchment paper.
The second time I crushed some chocolate chips and sprinkled sugar on the parchment paper. It came off the paper easily and tasted like a chocolate chip cookie. YUM!

This is my attempt at making macaroons and I will admit my expectations were low going into it, considering I was trying to replace store bought macaroons.

This recipe far exceeded my expectations! Sure, they have a meringue texture, but this is what makes them slightly crunchy on the outside, and moist on the inside. The slight crunch almost duplicates the texture of the cookie-like consistency of a store bought macaroon.

Pros: Ingredients on hand, super simple, fantastic taste...cooking time was right on (surprisingly.

Cons: I've already eaten half of the batch that I baked!

Alton, thanks again!

I was pleased with this recipe, very tasty and easy to make. The only thing is I think the cooking time may be a little long, mine were a little over done after just 15 minutes and I don't usually have any problems like that with my oven.

i give this a 5 star because it is so versatile. Since I don't have an electric mixer and was 2 lazy to measure i mixed my dry ingredients till it looked about right.

Changes:
I used a little coco-nut flour also
I added the 1 cap vanilla ext
also added 1 cap of rum extract.(Stunning effect

I could also see this recipe with a few chocolate chips to give it that something

made as directed- macaroons were O.K. soon after baking, but after a couple of hours, were soggy, too chewy, not crispy on outside, I rebaked them on a low oven, which crisped them but made the inside an unattractive brown.

it's my first time making macaroons,and i was surprised that it turned out well. it's more like a meringue, which i love and it's different, than traditional macaroons. Try this out!
