May 31st, 2025 is National Macaroon Day
Macaroons are a simple cookie made from almond paste or coconut and mixed with sugar and egg whites. Many cultures have a macaroon-like cookie, but their origins are believed to be traced back to an Italian monastery in the early 1500's.
Because they are unleavened, macaroons are popular at Passover.
In addition to the basic macaroon, you will often find recipes for ones containing add-ins like cherries, orange, chocolate, apricot and more.
