Chocolate Macaroon Brownies image

The brownie base makes this recipe different from other macaroon bars-in fact, that gives you a nice option if you don't have a lot of time. Just substitute a boxed brownie mix and top it with the filling and frosting.

These brownies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would make them again, but I would use less sugar next time.

These were the best brownies I've ever had! They were so fudgy and chocolatey. The macarons were a perfect addition. I will definitely be making these again and again.

These brownies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used semi-sweet chocolate instead of milk chocolate.

These brownies were easy to make and turned out great! I used a box of chocolate cake mix and added some instant coffee powder to the batter for extra flavor. The macarons added a nice crunch and sweetness. I will definitely be making these again.

I'm not a huge fan of macarons, but these brownies were still delicious. The chocolate flavor was rich and decadent, and the brownies were perfectly chewy. I would definitely make these again, even without the macarons.

These brownies were a hit! They were fudgy, chewy, and had the perfect amount of chocolate flavor. The macaroons added a nice touch of sweetness and texture. I will definitely be making these again.
