Chocolate Macarons


I heard chocolate macarons are quite tricky to make. I'm planning to test out various recipes and see which one works for me. This weekend it's recipe #1. It was pretty successful except I didn’t dry out the last pan of macarons long enough so they ended up cracking. The best batch was the second tray that went in as it was out the longest. Since the raspberries were quite tart, I paired it with milk chocolate. However, I found it too sweet – I think i’ll stick with dark chocolate next time since the macaron itself is quite sweet. Overall I’m happy with the results of recipe #1.
