Only yesterday, after I finished the World Bread Day 2009 - Roundup with 264 amazing entries, I realized I had still to make the Daring Baker's challenge: Macaroons!

¡Qué horror! Of course there was no time to let age the egg whites for 3 days and no time to let them take room temperature as well. Perhaps that's why I produced the world's ugliest Macaroons? Where is the distinctive "foot" at the base of my macaroons gone?

It doesn't worth to write down my proceeding. But in case you wonder: These should be Coconut Macaroons with Dark Chocolate Ganache Filling. I think, it's better you head over to the Daring Kitchen Headquarter to see the recipe as well the perfect Macaroons my fellow Daring Bakers made.

The 2009 October Daring Bakers' challenge was brought to us by Ami S. She chose macaroons from Claudia Fleming’s The Last Course: The Desserts of Gramercy Tavern as the challenge recipe.
