The best Macarons recipe, from Maria

Maria's macarons are a delightful and exquisite French dessert that boasts a perfect balance of crispy exteriors and soft, chewy interiors. These delectable treats are known for their delicate flavors and vibrant colors, making them a favorite at parties and special occasions. Maria's recipe is a tried-and-true method to achieve macaron perfection.
Sift the almond flour and powdered sugar into a bowl. Discard any larger bits that can't pass through the sifteIn a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they are frothy. If you'd like, add a pinch of cream of tartar to help stabilize the meringue. Gradually add granulated sugar while continuing to beat. Keep beating until you achieve stiff, glossy peaks.
If you'd like to add color to your macarons, gently fold in the gel food coloring at this stage, being careful not to overmix. Add flavor extracts if desired.
Gently fold the almond flour and powdered sugar mixture into the meringue until you achieve a smooth and shiny batter. This step requires gentle folding to maintain the right consistency. Be patient and avoid overmixing.
Transfer the batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip (typically a 1/2 inch or 12mm tip).
Pipe small, even rounds onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Allow some space between each macaron to prevent them from touching during baking.
Tap the baking sheet on the counter a few times to remove air bubbles and achieve smooth tops.
Let the piped macarons sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour. This helps them develop a "skin."
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Bake the macarons for about 15-20 minutes, depending on your oven. They should have developed a slight crust and lift off the parchment paper easily.
Let them cool completely on the baking sheet before gently removing them.
Pair macaron shells of similar sizes and sandwich them with your preferred filling.
Store the macarons in an airtight container in the fridge for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld, but let them come to room temperature before serving.
Maria's macarons are a true labor of love, but the effort is undoubtedly worth it when you bite into these delicate, sweet, and flavorful treats. Whether you choose a classic flavor or get creative with your fillings and colors, Maria's recipe will help you create macarons that are sure to impress. Enjoy!
