More chocolate goodies...

Last weekend I attempted to make raspberry buttercream to try with another batch of chocolate macarons. Unfortunately the macarons it didn’t turn out as well as my previous batch. The batter was runnier, so I ended up with larger macarons. I will have to try out the Italian meringue method as I’ve read it’s more stable, resulting in more consistent results.
The buttercream also failed, so I ended up freezing the macarons since I didn’t have time to whip up another batch of buttercream. After thawing the macarons this weekend, I whipped up some peanut butter ganache. It’s a wonderful combination but I’m not a fan of PB and chocolate.
