The "Not So Perfect" Macaron

This past week I braved my baking fears and attempted to bake the french macaron. These cookies are so delicate and beautiful and look super impressive when served on a beautiful platter. Mine... were not so delicate. They cracked and browned too much and never grew "feet".

After my failed macaroon attempt, I decided to make some meringue cookies to make me feel better. These little fluffy wonders were delicious and easy to make. Yum!

I do promise that I will give macaroons another try. I will not let them defeat me! But for now.... I am going to enjoy one or two of these delicious little guys.
