“Step Aside Oreo, There’s a New Sandwich Cookie in Town”- French Macarons: French Sandwich Cookies
The other night I got to Sous Chef for the French Macaron baking class at Sur La Table. I’ve always wanted to bake a giant batch of these adorable sandwich cookies, but I’ve never had the chance to learn the proper technique. Thanks to my good friend and amazing chef, Vanessa DiStefano, I learned the key to making perfect Macarons!
I baked tons of Macarons alongside the class participants! We had four different flavors: Chocolate Macarons with Cocoa Custard Cream, Raspberry Macarons with Raspberry Jam Cream, Green Tea Macarons with Matcha Cream and finally Coconut Macarons with Rum Cream.
I must have eaten 10 of these delish little creations, but it was well worth it! The class was a blast and all the “students” were in Macaron heaven! I can’t wait to bake up some of these addicting cookies for my Thanksgiving feast.
If you’re interested in some of the recipes from the baking class, feel free to email me which ones you’d like. These recipes are courtesy of Sur La Table.
