Description

Macarons are known for being a rather difficult dessert.
Here you will find the meringue biscuit with its famous texture and a smooth, delicious chocolate ganache in between.
The recipe for light and beautiful chocolate macarons.


Ingredients for 8 people

0,75 almond powder

0,3 egg

2 butter

1,4 powdered sugar

10 liquid cream

2 unsweetened cocoa powder

Step 1/5

Sift 2 ⅓ tsp of powdered sugar. Beat egg whites until stiff, adding 1 1/4 tsp tsp of sugar as soon as they turn white, then again 1 1/4 tsp when the mixture is smooth. Sift together the cocoa, almond powder and reMayning sugar. Fold the very stiff peaks into the sugar, almond powder and cocoa mixture. Place mixture in a piping bag and create circles on a baking sheet. Wait 20 minutes at room temperature before baking at 300°F for 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 2/5

Heat the cream and the chocolate. Mix to obtain a smooth texture. Stir in the butter and mix again before letting the ganache cool in the fridge.

Step 3/5

The macarons are cooked when they have a shiny shell.(dry but still soft inside). Wait until they have cooled to garnish them. Place the macarons in the refrigerator overnight, covered with cling film or in a box. It is totally worth the wait!

Step 4/5

Generously fill half of the macaron shell with ganache using a pastry bag. Cover with the second shell.

Step 5/5

The macarons are ready to be eaten but will be even better after a night in the refrigerator.

Tip

For even more beautiful macarons, put a little cocoa in the batter and sprinkle it on the macarons. You will wow everyone with this recipe.
