WATERMELON MACARONS

Steps:

• To Make Macaron Shells:.
• In a bowl, combine sifted powdered sugar and almond flour.
• Beat egg white (at room temperature) and sugar until you get soft peaks.
• Then add the powdered sugar and almond mixture.
• Mix well and then divide into two equal bowls.
• Make one green by adding several drops of green food coloring; mix well.
• Make the other bowl pink by adding a few drops of red food coloring; mix well.
• On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, pipe each color; making sure the disc shapes are the same size.
• For the pink discs, sprinkle with poppy seeds.
• After piping all the cookies, allow the shells to rest for 30 minutes until a thin skin has formed.
• Bake for 15 minutes at 225 degrees F.
• To Make the Filling:.
• Blend butter until it's smooth and creamy.
• Add powdered sugar, heavy cream, a pinch of salt and several drops of watermelon flavoring.
• Blend together until well-combined.
• To Assemble the Macaron:.
• Pipe the filling on one side of the shell, and top with the other shell (making sure one side is green and one side is pink, so it resembles a watermelon slice).
