I used the recipe from preppy kitchen, I’m so proud of how they came out! A super tad undercooked but they still tasted great. I didn’t have a proper piping bag and I didn’t realize how much they would flatten when I tapped the pan down, so a few of them are different sizes. Simple vanilla buttercream filling.

    Sorry to be that person, but macaroons are gooey, chewy shredded coconut clusters. What you made are macarons.

    I love John Kanell! He is so fun to watch! I’ve been intimidated by these in the past but might give them a go later this month! I’m so glad they seemed to have gone so well for you, you have inspired me to give it a whirl!

    Hmm… you did a good job. As you do more you will get better. Congrats!!

    This is great! Way better than my first try. I never made it past the macronage part.

    Macarons are the French sandwich cookies, macaroons are coconut meringues

    Note: I guess meringue is a strong word for it, its just lightly whipped whites plus sugar, not even to soft peaks

    They look better than half the folks made on the master chef episode I watched the other day! Good job 🙂

    They look good!

    My first and last attempt was terrible 😂

    I haven’t tried because I know how hard they are and you did a fantastic job!

    These are amazing! In my opinion, undercooking is much better than over. I’ve tried the recipe from a blog from pies and tacos and it’s the only thing that has never failed me, and she has a lot of fun flavors if you’re looking to venture out recipe-wise. Congrats!

    That’s very impressive for a first time! I have yet to try 🫣seems so intimidating.

    You’ve done an amazing job!! They look much nicer than my two attempts at macarons 😅

    Your “feet” turned out really good on them for a first timer! (The crispy-looking part of the cookie near the filling)

    It’s not a kath bar, but I’ll upvote anyway

  16. Actually great especially for a first time attempt! Mine were awful each time I tried, the second batch wouldn’t even come off the paper I had underneath.
