Ingredients
Utensils
parchment paper, Cookie sheet , silicone baking mat, food processor, 2 sieves, stand mixer with whisk, spatula, Pastry bag, saucepan, fork, plastic bag, oven, wooden spoon
Step 1/8
- parchment paper
- Cookie sheet
- silicone baking mat
Line the cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone mat.
Step 2/8
- ⅛ cup almond flour
- ⅛ cup Icing sugar
- food processor
- sieve
In the food processor, grind the almonds and icing sugar until they form a fine powder, 2 to 3 minutes. Sift and set aside.
Step 3/8
- ⅓ egg whites
- ⅛ tsp red food coloring
- ⅛ cup sugar
- stand mixer with whisk
- spatula
Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites with the food colouring until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, beating constantly until the peaks are stiff. Using a spatula, fold in the almond–sugar mixture and stir until the mixture deflates and softens slightly.
Step 4/8
- Cookie sheet
- Pastry bag
Using a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-in plain tip, pipe 1 inch macaroons onto the cookie sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart. The macaroons should flatten slightly; if they do not, the batter has not been stirred enough. Let dry at room temperature until the macarons develop a thin crust, about 90 minutes.
Step 5/8
- ⅛ cup raspberry (frozen)
- ¼ tbsp sugar
- saucepan
- fork
While waiting for macaroon to get hard, prepare the ganache. In a small saucepan, heat the raspberries and sugar over low heat. Mash raspberries.
Step 6/8
- ⅛ cup white chocolate chip
- sieve
- plastic bag
Strain the raspberries over the white chocolate. Mix and put in a pastry bag. Refrigirate 1 hour.
Step 7/8
- oven
- wooden spoon
Once the macarons have hardened, put them in the oven for 7 minutes with a wooden spoon blocking the oven door.
Step 8/8
Fill in the macarons and assemble them.
Enjoy your meal!
