Chocolate macarons :)

As now macarons are very popular so i tried this recipe which i found in a website. The recipe is simple and just nice, not too sweet :)

You will need ;
175 g icing sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 medium white eggs
30 g caster sugar
90 g ground almonds

For the filling ;
6-8 tablespoons hazelnut chocolate spread
Piping bag fitted with 1 cm piping tube

1.) Sift the icing sugar together with the cocoa powder onto a bowl. Do it twice until it is combined well together.
2.) In a separate bowl, add white eggs together with caster sugar. Whisk until thick and u can actually turn the bowl up side down to know the mixture is ready.
3.) So now sift the icing sugar and cocoa mixture in the bowl of white eggs, then add ground almonds. Mix with a spatula slowly. Mix it gently as the mixture is quite stiff and dry. Mix well.
4.) Spoon mixture in a piping bag.
5.) Pipe the mixture onto a baking sheet, if u want a better shape, rest it well for at least 30 minutes.
6.) Bake for 25 minutes for about 150 degrees.
7.) Let it cool then spread the fillings onto the macarons, and sandwich it with another macaron.
8.) Ure done and ready to serve! :)



much love,
