Ingredients
– 100 grams egg whites
– 100 grams granulated sugar
– 105 grams almond flour
– 75 grams powdered sugar
– 14 grams cocoa powder
– brown food coloring (optional)
– 1/4 cup water
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– 160 grams unsalted butter
– 1 cup toasted coconut flakes
– 2 cups chocolate chips
– 1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes
Instructions
1-First, sift almond flour and powdered sugar together to remove lumps and create a smooth base for the shells.
2-In a clean bowl, whip egg whites until foamy, slowly adding granulated sugar to form stiff, glossy peaks.
3-Gently fold the dry ingredients into the meringue, making sure the batter flows slowly off the spatula without overmixing.
4-Pipe the batter into rounds on a lined baking sheet, tap to release air bubbles, and let rest for about 30 minutes until a skin forms.
5-Bake at 310°F (155°C) for 15-18 minutes, adjusting time based on your oven and shell size for the best texture.
6-Prepare the filling by heating water and sugar to amber, adding cream and butter, then mixing in toasted coconut and chilling.
7-Assemble by dipping shell bottoms in melted chocolate, piping on caramel, sandwiching with another shell, drizzling more chocolate, and sprinkling toasted coconut.
8-Finally, refrigerate the assembled macarons overnight to let the flavors mature.
