Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325°.

Step 2

Grease 2 or 3 large baking sheets or line the sheets with foil and grease the foil.

Step 3

In a large bowl, with an electric mixer at medium speed, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt until frothy.

Step 4

Increase the mixer speed to high and continue beating, adding the brown sugar gradually (in small handfuls) and scraping the bowl once, until the whites form stiff, glossy peaks.

Step 5

With a large rubber spatula, fold in the chopped pecans.

Step 6

Drop the batter by heaping teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 1 inch apart.

Step 7

Press a pecan half into each, flattening the cookie slightly.

Step 8

Bake until the macaroons are set and feel hard and crisp, about 35 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely,

Step 9

Then store in airtight containers.
