Ingredients:

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1
• 5 cups powdered sugar
• 2 large egg whites
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Food coloring optional
• Buttercream filling your choice of flavor

Instructions:

Set oven temperature to 300F 150C

Pulse almond flour and powdered sugar in a food processor until thoroughly mixed

Pour mixture into a bowl by sifting

Beat the egg whites in a different bowl until frothy

Add the granulated sugar gradually while beating

Until stiff peaks form, beat

Gently fold the sifted mixture of almond flour into the egg whites until fully incorporated

If desired, add food coloring and vanilla extract

Spoon the batter into a piping bag fitted with a circular tip

Pipe tiny circles onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet

To get rid of the air bubbles, tap the baking sheet against the counter

The macarons should form a skin after 20 to 30 minutes of sitting at room temperature

Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the macarons are firm to the touch and have risen in the center of the oven

Take them out of the oven and leave them on the baking sheet to cool completely

After cooling, sandwich one macaron shell with your preferred buttercream filling and cover it with another

To allow flavors to meld, store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for a full day
