In a separate bowl beat the egg whites to stiff peaks. Then slowly add the sugar to the egg whites continuing to beat as you add. When all the sugar is added continue to beat until glossy, smooth and stiff.<\/p>\n<p>Carefully fold the almond-flour mix with a spatula into the egg white mix. Now you\u2019re ready to pipe out your macaron shells. Fill your piping bag with the mixture. If you don\u2019t have a piping bag and tip you can use a freezer bag and just cut a hole in one of the corners.<\/p>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 130C.<\/p>\n<p>Place a piece of baking paper on a baking sheet. Pipe circles about 2 cm in diameter onto the paper. (Remember: to make one macaron you will use 2 circles, so to make 30 maracons you will need to pipe out 60 circles) Bake for 40 minutes leaving the oven door slightly open while they are baking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chocolate Filling:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Break the chocolate into small pieces and melt together with the butter in a water bath or in the microwave. Whip the cream to firm peaks. Once the melted chocolate has cooled mix with the whipped cream.<\/p>\n<p>When the Macaron shells are cool, spread the filling onto one half of the macaron and place the other half of the macaron on top.<\/p>\n<p>Place in the fridge until you serve them, so the filling stays a nice consistency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These meringue pastries with almonds have been making a great come back.
