I haven't tried it yet, but coincidentally I was going through some old Bon Appetits yesterday, and the May issue (2001 maybe? I thought I had tried epicurious.com when I was searching for a recipe last month) that they devoted to Paris gave a step-by-step recipe for Herme's chocolate and caramel macarons. I may try it sometime (even though I prefer Laduree's macarons!)and would consider myself very fortunate if they turned out well!
BTW, we ended up with a tarte tatin, tarte au citron, creme caramel, and far breton for our French dinner last month.

If you have problems getting them off the parchment, you can lift one edge of the parchment and pour a bit of boiling water onto the pan underneat the parchment. Tip the pan so the water moves around under the parchment. The steam from the hot water and hot pan will release the macaroons from the paper.
