Chocolate Covered Strawberry Macaroons
I had some strawberries, I had some chocolate. They decided they wanted a hook-up. Honestly, I had nothing to do with this. I just watched as the little strawberry macaroons dive-bombed the chocolate. Not that I’m complaining, mind you. They turned out delightful!

Well these were absolutely awesome. Thanks for the recipe. Every recipe of yours that I have tried has been excellent and has gone into my recipe file. And your pictures are always so wonderful. If you ever make a recipe book, don’t forget the photos. I refuse to buy recipe books without photos. So important. Thanks again.

I think I’ll have to be trying this sometime soon! That is if I find some more affordable almond flour. I wonder if I have anything I can sub in the meantime!

Lisbet: You can make your own. Either dehydrate the leftovers from your almond milk or grind almonds very fine in the food processor.
