Chocolate Macaroons I Recipes

CHOCOLATE MACARONS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/ 160C fan/gas 4. Line a large baking sheet with baking paper. Sift the icing sugar and cocoa into a bowl, then stir in the ground almonds. Whisk the egg whites until stiff, then fold them into the dry ingredients.
• Fill an icing bag fitted with a plain nozzle with the mixture (or put in a large food bag and snip off the corner). Pipe 24 small blobs, about 3cm across, onto the baking sheet, leaving a little space between each. Smooth the surface with a wet finger, then leave for 15 mins to dry out. Bake for 15-20 mins until macaroons feel firm to the touch and peel easily off the paper. Cool on the paper, then peel off and store in a tin for up to 1 week.
• To make the filling, put chocolate into a heatproof bowl and gently melt over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir in the warm milk until smooth. Leave to cool and thicken a little, then use to sandwich the macarons together

CHOCOLATE MACARON RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 320ºF and line a 1/2 baking sheet with the macaron template and parchment paper
• Sift together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and almond flour, twice if not blended.
• Pulse the mixture in a food processor 8-10 times to make the almond flour mixture even finer and texture and to blend the ingredients together.
• Whip the egg whites on low to frothy consistency and slowly add the sugar in thirds.
• Once the egg whites turn white and you can see some lines forming in the surface from the whisk, add cream of tartar, whipping on medium until soft glossy peaks form.
• Add the vanilla to the meringue during the soft peak stage. Then continue whipping on medium-high until you get stiff peaks that start gathering and bunching on the inside of the whisk.
• Add 1/3 of your almond mixture to the meringue. Fold your spatula under the batter and around the edges and then cut through the center until almond flour is mixed in. Continue with the rest of the almond flour and folding until homogenous. (see video)
• Gently press the spatula on top of the batter while you turn the bowl to take out some fo the air from the meringue. Continue folding around the outside edge until the batter forms a ribbon and moves like lava.
• Your meringue is ready when it forms a ribbon off the spatula and the batter that settles almost dissolves all the way back into the rest of the batter but still leave a bit of a line.
• Place parchment paper onto your sheet pan. Pipe small rounds about 1" in diameter. Use a template if needed
• Drop the pan onto the table 5-6 times from about 5" above the table to release bubbles. Use a toothpick to remove big pockets of air trapped under the surface. Use a very small amount of water on your fingertip to smooth any rough spots.
• Allow to dry, uncovered until a crust forms on the surface. About 30 minutes - 2 hours or until a dry film develops over the surface of the cookie. For humid areas put a space heater nearby to help dry the cookies faster.
• Bake at 320ºF for about 14-15 minutes or until lightly browned. If not quite brown baked, bake for an additional 1 minute. Cooled cookies should pull away from the parchment paper without sticking. If they do stick, they were not baked enough.
• Let cool fully before removing from the parchment and filling with ganache. Cookies can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Shells can be frozen for 6 months in an airtight container.
• Place all the ingredients into a heatproof bowl and microwave for one minute. Let sit for 5 minutes then whisk until smooth. Heat for another 15 seconds if not fully melted. Place into the fridge for 20 minutes then whisk until smooth. It should be the texture of peanut butter.

OATMEAL CHOCOLATE COCONUT MACAROONS

Steps:

• Mix oats, coconut, and cocoa powder together in a bowl.
• Bring sugar, butter, and milk to a boil in saucepan, stirring occasionally; remove immediately from heat and stir into oat mixture.
• Drop 15 spoonfuls of batter onto a sheet of waxed paper. Cool to room temperature before serving.

CHOCOLATE MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside. Break chocolate into small pieces, and then transfer to a medium heatproof bowl.
• Set bowl with chocolate over a pan of simmering water; stir until chocolate is melted. Let cool slightly.
• Pour melted chocolate into a large bowl; add cocoa, sugar, coconut, egg whites, vanilla, and salt. Mix with your hands until well combined.
• Dampen clean hands with cold water. Mound 1 1/2 tablespoons mixture into a loose haystack shape, and transfer to lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mixture, arranging macaroons 1 inch apart.
• Bake until just firm to the touch but still soft in the middle, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely on baking sheet on a wire rack. Store in airtight containers at room temperature, up to 3 days.

CHOCOLATE MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment or preferably silicon pad.
• Mix egg whites (unbeaten) with the ground almonds, cocoa and powdered sugar until you have a sticky but cohesive mixture.
• Fill a large bowl with cold water and dip your hands in it to wet them before rolling the mixture into little balls the size of small walnuts. You will probably have to redunk your hands to keep wetting them as you go.
• Arrange the macaroon-balls on the lined baking tray and put in the oven to bake for 11 minutes. It's hard to tell when they're ready, as they will seem squishy but they harden up a little as they cool, and anyway, they should be damp within; that's what makes them chewy, so don't worry that the macaroons look sticky underneath.

• Tap the tray a couple times on a hard, flat surface to remove air bubbles.
• Let them sit at room temperature for about 30-60 minutes (until dry to the touch) and bake for 16-17 minutes at 300°F.

CHOCOLATE-COCONUT MACAROONS

Drizzle over macaroons with slotted spoon.

COCONUT-CHOCOLATE MACAROONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a bowl, whisk together egg white, honey, vanilla, lemon zest, and salt. Stir in coconut until completely coated with egg mixture. With a 1 1/2-inch ice-cream scoop, make 15 balls, transferring each one to a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
• Bake, rotating halfway through, until the coconut starts to turn golden brown on the edges, about 12 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack, and let cool completely. (Cookies can be stored in an airtight container up to 3 days.) Before serving, drizzle with melted chocolate, or dip one side in melted chocolate. Refrigerate 15 minutes to set.

CHOCOLATE MACARONS (EASY STEP BY STEP)

Steps:

• In a bowl of a standing electric mixer, beat the egg whites with granulated sugar until they begin to rise and hold their shape.
• Sift powdered sugar, cocoa and almond flour to get rid of any lumps.
• Stir in dry ingredients into egg whites. Be sure not to over mix the ingredients.
• Place plastic bag or pastry bag into a cup to hold it straight. I would suggest a pastry bag, hence once you cut off the edge of a plastic bag it may not be a round shape. In this case, I wasn't going to make a trip to the store, so I did use a ziplock bag. Pour the entire mixture into the bag.
• Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Pipe circles into the baking sheet, making them thick. Tap baking sheet at least 3 times on each side, this will get rid of any air bubbles and will prevent from cracks. Let macarons sit in room temperature for about 20 minutes, they will create a bit of a shell, also helps from cracks on top.
• Bake macarons at 350 °F for 13-15 minutes, depending on your oven. I would suggest checking them after 13 minutes or so.
• Place butter together with chocolate chips in a glass bowl.
• Microwave chocolate with butter in 30-second increments. Stir to combine it together every 30 seconds to ensure that the mixture is perfectly creamy. Let the mixture cool down to room temperature.
• Place spoonful of the cream on a flat side of the macaron and cover it with another macaron.
