For any celebration with a unicorn theme, these macarons make a whimsical and delightful treat. Their vivid hues and indulgent, buttery filling will infuse your special day with a little magic.
Ingredients: 150g almond flour. 150g powdered sugar. 110g egg whites aged, at room temperature. 40g granulated sugar. 1/4 tsp cream of tartar. 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. Gel food coloring assorted unicorn colors. For the unicorn filling:. 150g unsalted butter softened. 300g powdered sugar. 1 tsp vanilla extract. Rainbow sprinkles.
Instructions: Line a baking sheet with silicone baking mats or parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, sift together the powdered sugar and almond flour. Throw away any big lumps. Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer in a different bowl until frothy. Beat in the cream of tartar after adding it. Beat the egg whites until the granulated sugar is gradually added. Until stiff peaks form, beat. Using a spatula, gently fold the almond flour mixture into the egg whites. Take care not to blend too much. The consistency of the batter should be lava-like. To create unicorn colors, divide the batter into separate bowls and add gel food coloring to each one. Pour the colored batter into piping bags that have round tips attached. Scoop batter onto the baking sheet that has been ready in little circles. After gently tapping the sheet to release any air bubbles, leave the macarons to sit at room temperature for approximately half an hour, or until a skin forms. Set the oven temperature to 300F 150C. The macarons should be baked for 15 to 18 minutes, or until their feet have grown and their tops are firm. Make the unicorn filling while the macarons cool. Beat the softened butter until it becomes creamy in a mixing bowl. Add vanilla extract and powdered sugar gradually while beating until fluffy and smooth. After the macarons cool, arrange them into pairs according to their size and shape. On one half of each macaron pair, pipe a tiny bit of the unicorn filling. After the filling, scatter rainbow sprinkles on top. To create macarons that resemble unicorn birthday cake, gently sandwich the macarons with their corresponding partners. To allow the flavors to meld, chill the macarons in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving. Present and savor your enchanted Macarons with Unicorn Birthday Cake!
