There are only almond flour, powdered sugar egg whites and egg whites as well as salt, granulated sugar food coloring (optional), and strawberry jam for filling. Start by heating the oven to 300degF (150degC). Then , mix both the sugar powder and the almonds in a bowl before setting aside. In another bowl, whisk together egg whites until they become foamy.
Then , add in the sugar granulated as well as salt. Continue whisking until stiff peaks begin to form in the mixture. Add in any food coloring you want to use – pink is especially suitable for strawberry macarons. Fold it into the meringue until fully combined. After that, fold into ingredients like powdered sugar, almond flour a little small at a time until it’s all fully incorporated in the meringue. The batter should be thick but still able to flow out of your spatula without becoming too sloppy or the consistency is too lumpy.
After everything has been thoroughly mixed then transfer it to an piping bag with an Ateco 806 tip. Pipe tiny rounds onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets about 1 inch in distance from each other. Scrape each strawberry macarons sheet on your counter several times to release air bubbles and let them sit for at the very least 30 minutes before baking in your oven that is preheated for 15 to 18 minutes, until the top is golden brown.
Bake them in the oven for 15 minutes. Then take off to cool on wire racks, before assembling the cookies with the fillings later on. Once your cookies are completely cooling, you can begin filling the cookies with fillings. Mix cream cheese, sugar and powdered until light and fluffy then add in food coloring if you like – stirring until the color is evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Pour about half of a tablespoon of this mixture onto half of the macaron halves and then top them off with the other halves to create mini little sandwiches.
