look amazing even though I haven't tried it

These were great biscuits love the chocolate dipped feature.

Not good!

These are most definitely NOT Macarons. I followed the recipe exactly, but they forgot to give the Macarons time to sit and rest. What I got what just a mushy meringue cookie. I would suggest tweaking the recipe, the only problem is they do not garden or get a foot like a macaron does. They taste well enough, but don’t end up baking or looking right.
