Macaroons are dense sweets made with almond and egg white or with a thick almond paste, traditional in English-speaking countries. They share origin with French sweets called macarons, which had a different evolution from the Italian original called maccarone.
Macaroons often use egg white (usually whipped to the point of snow), with chopped or ground nuts, often coconut or sometimes almond. However, if the coconut or other ingredient used is very sweet, the sugar can be omitted. Macaroons are commonly baked on edible rice paper laid out on a cookie sheet.
