Ingredients:
- 200g almond flour
- 200g powdered sugar
- 150g egg whites aged for 24 hours
- 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
- 100g granulated sugar
- Food coloring pink, purple, blue, and yellow
- Unicorn horn and ear decorations edible
- Edible glitter various colors
- Buttercream frosting for filling
- Sprinkles rainbow-colored
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 300F 150C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
In a food processor, combine almond flour and powdered sugar
Pulse until well combined and fine in texture
In a large mixing bowl, beat the aged egg whites until foamy
Add cream of tartar and continue to beat until soft peaks form
Gradually add granulated sugar while continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks are achieved
Sift the almond flour and powdered sugar mixture into the egg white mixture
Gently fold until you get a smooth batter with a lava-like consistency
Divide the batter into separate bowls and add different food coloring to each bowl to create vibrant unicorn colors
Transfer each colored batter into a separate piping bag fitted with a round tip
Pipe macaron shells onto the prepared baking sheet
They should be about 1
5 inches in diameter and spaced apart
Tap the baking sheet on the counter to remove any air bubbles
Let the macarons rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes until they form a skin
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the macarons have risen and have firm, smooth tops
Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet before carefully peeling them off the parchment paper
Once cooled, match macaron shells of the same size and color
Pipe a ring of buttercream frosting around the edge of one shell and add sprinkles to the center
Place the matching shell on top and gently press to create a macaron sandwich
Decorate the top of each macaron with edible glitter, unicorn horn, and ear decorations
Your unicorn macarons are ready to enchant your taste buds!
