Coco Macaron (Low Powder Version)

Overview

This recipe of macarons is super low-cost, especially suitable for beginners to practice, and it is easy to succeed. The macarons with cocoa powder taste particularly good. Some people say that the cake flour version of macarons tastes like cake. I think the taste is no worse than the almond flour version after adding cocoa powder! If you like it, you can try it...
