I was inspired by my friend who loved french Macarons, (not the coconut type). The colors are so attractive, the flavors are delicious. There's barely any ingredients, but it has to be made just right or else they bomb.

French Macarons French Macarons
I prefer to make these myself at home and just play around with the flavors, as there's really nowhere to buy them where I live...not to mention they can be pricy when I do find them (anywhere from $2-$5 per cookie!) They can be finicky and they require patience. Once you master the basic recipe, you can make endless flavor variations. I'm by no means an expert, but this is the basic recipe that I use. To make them different colors, use 2-4 drops of gel food coloring and add it to the eggs once soft peaks have formed, then continue to whip them into stiff peaks. Keep in mind that they will turn out a shade or so lighter after baking than the batter is initially. You can also add up to 1/4 tsp. of a flavored extract at the same time as the food coloring.

French Meringue Macarons French Meringue Macarons
I wanted to make a macaron that was easy to make and hard to mess up.If you fold the macaron batter (Step 4) for too long, the batter will weaken and you wont be able to use it. If you don't fold it enough, you wont get stiff peaks and a glossy appearance.If you don't dry the macarons enough, the macarons will break while baking. It's best not to make macarons on rainy or humid days.Check your oven to make sure it can heat at the correct temperature. Depending on your oven, you may need to modify how you bake your macarons.

Frozen Macarons Frozen Macarons
As soon as I saw these two colors of dragées, I had an inspiraiton. My first inspiration was the colors of Snow Miku (winter-themed Hatsune Miku). Both Snow Miku and Frozen fit the image of these macarons perfectly.The oven temperature will vary depending on the season (and the room temperature).In the winter, start at 200°C and go to 130°C. In the summer, start at 180°C and go to 120°C. Observe the macarons and adjust. If the macarons get browned they'll no longer have a "snowy" image.If you are using powdered food coloring, dissolve it in a bit of water first. Recipe by RTP. -

My Vanilla Macarons à la Parisienne My Vanilla Macarons à la Parisienne
I personally am not fond of desserts, but I've never failed when making this. I've given them as gifts, and they are really well received, so I've uploaded the recipe.25 g of granulated sugar in the egg white worked fine. (I think it's best not to reduce it further.) The time it takes for the macarons to dry out in Step 8 may vary depending on the day. If you make these macarons following the recipe, they won't get cracked on the surface or shrink inside.
