Actually they are 2 very different things
http://www.popsugar.com/food/Macarons-vs-Macaroons-8038818
Did your oven preheat fully? before you put them in the oven- I also only cooked 1 tray at a time in the centre of the oven
Leave them on the tray until totally cool before removing from the paper (peeling the paper off whilst holding the biscuit seem to work for me)
good luck next time
The first time I made them I put all the sugar ( caster & icing) inot the egg white & of course it didn't work but I cooked them anyway ( very flat & sticky) but tasted good as I had divided the mixture & added orange essence to half the mix & choc the other half before cooking. post cooking I did 1 orange & 1 choc half & they tasted good
this time I made them following the instruction properly & wow real macaroons.... Yeah. what is the best way to store them?
For some reason mine were quite soft & moist on the bottom and stuck to the baking paper! They cracked when I tried to remove them to cool. Not sure why?? Perhaps my oven needed to be hotter or they needed to cook longer. I tried for 13 mins then 15 mins and still the same thing happened!!

Sorry to let you know but you have spelt the title wrong. It should be macaron, as macaroons are completely different.
I thought these would be difficult to make, but they were easy and came out well - I will be making them again soon for sure !!!
