I made these yesterday. They were fantastic. I baked them on a silicone baking mat on my cookie sheets. I had no problem removing them. I want to try to make them taller next time. All my bunco friends loved them.

Hi Anne, Hmm, I’m honestly not sure why these would turn watery on you. Did you substitute any ingredients, are you at a high altitude, using a convection oven, etc.?

I didn’t use water, I used two spoons? Should I have used water? Please help me! Thanks!

Hi Anne, They shouldn’t be watery. I’m wondering if you used too much water on your hands when shaping?

Update

When my cookies were baking, it turned watery. Is this supposed to happen? If not, what did I do wrong, and how do I fix it? Thanks!

Hi Bina, What about using a tin? They usually aren’t as airtight as the plastic containers.

Hi Michelle!

Any suggestions on how to store them so that they stay crisp for a couple of days? I kept them in an airtight container after they cooled completely, but they became soft the next day.
This is my third time making them this month!!! Thanks for such a fabulous recipe!

Hi Cherie, Almost all recipes published here in the U.S. are written in volume (i.e. cup) measurements, and some include weights in ounces, but virtually none include grams. The “cups” refer to an actual measuring cup, which are standard sizes. I am working on some conversion calculators, but in the meantime I would recommend using something like Google to do conversions – if you type in “xx cups = ? grams” it will do a conversion for you.

Please please can you use proper measurments and not cups. I have 7 different cup sizes! Is it possible to get this recipe in grams please?

Thank you for your help. I bought some parchment paper the other day and I am about to make the recipe again right now. For some reason I always thought waxed paper and parchment paper were interchangeable.

Hi Kelly, As noted in the recipe, I set the dipped macaroons on parchment paper, not wax paper. They are actually totally different and could be why yours stuck – parchment paper is by its nature non-stick. I would pick up a roll – I use it for all of my baking!

These taste so yummy, but for some reason they have completely stuck to the wax paper. Maybe I need a different brand? hmmm, not sure what went wrong. Still delicious though, just wish I could solve the liner problem

Hi Michelle!

I just discovered your blog the other day and have read through the entire thing. I’m planning on sending you an e-mail with a bunch of questions soon. When I made macaroons in culinary school the batter was a bit thinner, so we piped them out with a star tip into a cute little swirl mountain. You should give that a try next time!
