Enjoy these delicious and delicate French macarons with a crisp shell and soft, chewy interior. Perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients: 1 3/4 cups almond flour. 2 cups powdered sugar. 4 large egg whites. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Food coloring optional.
Instructions: In a bowl, sift together powdered sugar and almond flour. Beat the egg whites in a different bowl until frothy. Add the granulated sugar gradually while beating until stiff peaks form. Until everything is well combined, fold the dry ingredients into the egg white mixture. If desired, add food coloring and vanilla extract. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag, then pipe tiny rounds onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. To form a skin, let the piped macarons sit at room temperature for approximately half an hour. Set the oven's temperature to 300F, or 150C. Macaron baking takes 15 to 18 minutes. On the baking sheet, let them cool fully before filling and sandwiching.
