Almond Macaroons The Passover Cookies


There they are, every single passover, those macaroons. You can't escape them! I, personally, am not a fan of the coconut macaroon, which is the more popular kind of passover cookie you find in the supermarket. But an almond macaroon? that's almost worth the whole holiday!!
