It doesn’t get much easier than this. Four ingredients and a total of 10 minutes in the oven. This super fast dessert is the perfect tiny sweet ending to any meal. Mini macaroons are great plain, drizzled with semisweet chocolate or topped with chocolate and chopped pecans. Any way you make them, they’re addicting, and I guarantee you’ll be popping these pocket-sized treats all day and night.
