Margaret Macaroons
Margaret cookies are fragrant and soft, melt immediately in the mouth, and have a strong egg yolk aroma. Coupled with the crisp aroma of almonds, it tastes really good.
The full name of Margaret Biscuits is "Miss Margaret who lives in Steresia, Italy". It is said that a long time ago, when a pastry chef was making cookies, he silently said the name of his lover in his heart and pressed his fingerprint on the biscuit. This is the origin of the "Miss Margaret who lives in Stressa, Italy" cookies. [Baidu]
