Macaroons

I'm loving the look of macaroons lately, they're soooo pretty!  I gave them a go the other weekend, they are so tricky to make!!  The recipe said they should take about 30 mins - 1 hour to bake, I'm afraid it took me over 3 hours!  Haha, that's terrible!!  But I have to say they were yummy!  

I did make them about double the size they were meant to be, bad calculations!  So they were jumbo macaroons!!  Soooo pretty though!

 

Here's a link to the recipe ...
