These were just great! I think we ate about a dozen of them within a few hours of them being done.

Your macs look very much like mine. While I definitely do not take pleasure in the fact that the recipe didn’t work for you, it is nice to know that I’m not the only one who didn’t have perfectly beautiful French macarons. They do look delicious, though!

They look so beautiful that it hurts to hear you call them a failure! I love love the chestnut filling and getting hungry just thinking about it.

It seems like a lot of people had much frustration with this challenge. Who knew macaroons would be so hard?! It’s definitely sparked my interest and now I want to try my hand at it but I wonder if I have the resolve or patience to get it right..

In the meantime, here’s a place with awesome macaroons you should check out – one of my favorite chocolatiers and very creative macaroon flavors (lychee rose, shiso, kiwi pear)
