Tips
Make sure your measurements are precise.
Ensure the meringue is whipped to stiff peaks.
When folding the macaron batter, the texture should fall off the spatula like a ribbon.
Allow the cookies to dry on the sheet for 30 minutes before baking to ensure the feet form.
Leave the oven alone while baking.
