How to Make Chocolate Strawberry Macarons
Heat a small saucepan of water over medium heat. Whisk egg whites and sugar together! Beat the egg white mixture on medium speed until the meringue holds a soft peak, about 2-3 minutes. Once stiff peaks form, sift the powdered sugar and almond flour into the bowl and fold them gently into the meringue. Transfer the meringue to a piping bag fitted with a small round tip. Once you’ve finished piping the first tray, hold it a few inches off the counter and drop it straight down to release any air bubbles. Follow the directions to put the macarons together with the filling.
Chocolate Strawberry Macaron Ingredient Notes
Egg Whites: Egg whites are the base of our meringue. They do not have to be at room temperature but they shouldn’t have any yolks in them!Granulated Sugar: Sweetens the macarons and helps form the meringue in the macaron shells. Powdered Sugar: Used as a main dry component in both the shell and buttercream. It also adds additional sweetness to the macaron. Almond Flour: The key to classic macaron shells! My preferred brand is Bob’s Red Mill. Butter: The base of our buttercream. Make sure it’s fully softened so you don’t end up with lumps in your filling. Chocolate: I’m using semi-sweet chocolate to flavor the buttercream but milk or dark chocolate would work too. Just make sure you’re using a good quality brand!Strawberry Jam: I like seedless strawberry jam, but feel free to use what you have on hand.
Store any leftover macarons in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
