How do I prevent the macaroons from spreading and stay more in a traditional domed shape? I recently baked these macaroons. I followed the recipe as written except the portion size (2 Tablespoons). I reduced this so that I made 36 instead of 24 servings using a scoop making balls about the size of a ping pong ball. The batter was refrigerator cold when placed in the oven. The macaroons spread resulting in cookies about 3 inches in diameter. Taste and color are good. But I want to prevent them from spreading. I had thought of freezing the raw batter before baking.
