Instructions

  1. Small 110558 2f2015 08 22 163511 img 3474

    Blend together the ground almonds and icing sugar and then sift into a bowl.

  2. Small 110558 2f2015 08 22 163521 img 3475

    Whisk the egg whites until they form soft peaks and then whisk in the sugar, one third at a time until the meringue forms thick peaks. Fold the ground almonds into the meringue and then scrape into a piping bag.

  3. Small 110558 2f2015 08 22 163542 img 3476

    Squeeze out the macaroons on to a baking sheet and squeeze two little dots at either side to look like ears.

  4. Small 110558 2f2015 08 22 163601 img 3477

    Bang the tray on your table to remove air bubbles and leave for 30 minutes at room temperature so a slight skin forms on top.

  5. Small 110558 2f2015 08 22 163612 img 3498

    Bake at 150'C for 12 minutes and leave to cool.

  6. Small 110558 2f2015 08 22 163622 img 3503

    Match up the shells into pairs and spread each with biscuit spread in the middle.

    Finally use a black edible marker to draw faces on each of your macaroons!
