Recipe Introduction
The first recipe I posted here was the Macaroon Snowballs. They are great but have a more cakelike texture. I have found a macaroon that is much more like a real macaroon. So wonderful! Smokies Lil put this one together (elsewhere on this board) and it is fabulous and easier to make. I hope she doesn't mind me sharing it on this thread. They are just too good to not spread the love!
