Macaron Cookies

These Macaron Cookies came as a happy mistake, when I tried to make peanut butter cookies but realized I only had almond butter. They aren't as beautiful as their French counterpart, but they're simple to make and have a light almondy flavor that's reminiscent of the popular colored cookies.
