Ingredients

Steps

  1. Mix 2 cups of powdered sugar and 1 cup of almond flour together and prepare to sift. During this process, you can take the butter out of the refrigerator and soften it

  2. Sieve 2-3 times. Remember, you can’t be lazy when sieving

  3. Take a larger container and beat the egg whites. Add 1/3 of the sugar to 3 egg whites and beat until stiff peaks form. Add green coloring and mix well

  4. Add the sifted powder to the egg whites in 2-3 batches. When mixing, be careful: do not stir. Use a spatula to turn the egg whites along the wall of the container until the paste lifted by the spatula can be cut off like silk

  5. Use a piping bag to pipe the paste onto a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper, then shake the baking sheet and let it rest for 20 minutes

  6. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees and bake for about 15 minutes. I recommend splitting one plate into another (I was in a hurry to give it away after baking, so the photo I took was from the last time. Since there was no shock, there are water chestnuts)

  7. After baking the macarons, let the macarons cool and then start making the filling: soften the butter until there is a hole when you poke it with your hand. Beat the butter first, then add 3/4 cup of powdered sugar in 2-3 batches. Finally, the butter will be fluffy and light
