In a world where the laws of physics were a mere suggestion, Macaroons were born.
These chewy, wobbly, utterly delightful cookies were crafted by the great Macaronius himself, a being of pure whimsy and culinary genius.
As the story goes, Macaronius, tired of the mundane, decided to break free from the shackles of traditional cookie-dom. He created a cookie that defied the odds, a cookie that would make the gods weep with envy.
Thus, the Macaroon was born. A cookie of unapologetic excess, of sugary splendor, of crunchy, chewy, melty, buttery, salty, sweet delight.
And so, if you ever find yourself lost in the land of the cookieless, just remember: the Macaroon is the answer to all your snacking prayers.
