Delicate French macarons infused with rose and dark chocolate flavors, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp rose water
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 4 oz dark chocolate (70% cocoa), chopped
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Pulse the powdered sugar and almond flour together in a food processor until fine, ensuring no lumps.
  3. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form, then gradually add granulated sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
  4. Fold the almond flour mixture into the meringue in batches to avoid deflating the egg whites.
  5. Add the rose water and cocoa powder to the batter, folding gently until fully incorporated.
  6. Transfer the batter to a piping bag and pipe small circles onto the baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart.
  7. Tap the sheets on the counter to release air bubbles, then let rest for 30 minutes until tops are dry.
  8. Bake for 15-18 minutes, allowing macarons to develop feet. Let cool completely on the baking sheet.
  9. Heat the heavy cream in a saucepan until simmering, then pour over chopped chocolate. Let sit for a minute and stir until smooth.
  10. Mix in the rose water and butter until fully combined and let cool to room temperature.
  11. Spread or pipe ganache onto the flat side of one macaron shell and sandwich with another.
  12. Refrigerate filled macarons for 24 hours for best flavor.

Notes

Ensure all mixing bowls and utensils are clean before whipping egg whites for best volume.
