Macaroons

My first post! I made macaroons today.
I made this recipe because my friend Hayley is celiac and this recipe doesn't include wheat, instead it uses rice flour. Half way through making the macaroons, Hayley was nominated to do the ALS ice bucket challenge and we decided to do it before her Dad came to pick her up. A rather cold interruption! We had to use blanched almonds in this recipe to decorate the cookies at the end. If you want to know how to do this, you put almonds in a bowl of boiling water, leave for a minute and take them out and squeeze. It is a lot of fun to pop the almonds out of their skins and make them fly all over the kitchen!

I will rate all my recipes based on taste, appearance and difficulty. All out of ten.

Taste: 9.5
Appearance: 9
Difficulty: 4
