🍫Chocolate macaron success tips👇🏼

🌟For the richest chocolate color (without adding food coloring) I recommend using Hershey’s Special Dark cocoa

🌟 Brand of cocoa also matters. Using a more oily cocoa can result in wrinkly, wet-looking macaron tops. 

🌟When macaronaging, don’t go quite as far as you do with classic macarons. You want to JUST BARELY be able to make a figure 8, then STOP🛑 or you will over-mix

🌟The ganache filling will need to set to room temperature before you can use it, so you can start making it before your macarons are even in the oven.

🌟Good news! Chocolate macarons actually seem to be less fussy than their classic counterparts; they require less mixing, dry faster and are much less likely to be hollow!

🌟This video provides a brief overview, but see the link in my bio for the full recipe and full-length video: https://sugarspunrun.com/chocolate-macarons/
