That sounds interesting, especially if you have friends with celiac disease. It's hard to find recipes that don't call for really weird ingredients. Thanks.

Ooooh, I love macaroons!
Nice to see them made the old way without flour.

I've seen at least one mid-century recipe that just uses condensed milk and coconut, the thought of which makes my teeth ache. Way too sweet.
